Set up a team target

⏱ 5 minutes Administrator Manage Targets Manage Teams Targets Setup

Steps to create a target for a team in Workzilla. Team targets can be set as a flat amount or laddered up automatically from individual team member targets.

What you'll have at the end An active target for a team, visible in the relevant performance views from the selected start month.
  1. 1
    Navigate to Administration > Manage Targets
  2. 2
    Select the Team Targets tab and click Add target
  3. 3
    Name the target
    Target name is the first field on the form and is optional. Leave it blank and the target is named automatically from its rule. Enter a name to show something plainer to the people reading it, or to mark a target as reporting-only.
  4. 4
    Select the team(s) the target applies to
    Multiple teams can be selected. Teams are configured in Company Customisation > Teams & Roles > Manage Teams.
  5. 5
    Set the "Based on" field
    Choose Team performance to include fees and hours across all matters where any team member holds a matter relationship, or select a specific matter relationship (such as Person Responsible or Person Assisting) to narrow the scope.
  6. 6
    Choose the target type
    Options are Billable fees, Fees invoiced, Fees collected, Fees collected (sans credits), Total hours, or Billable hours.
  7. 7
    Set the calculation method
    Flat amount enters a fixed dollar or hour value. Ladder up from Team Member individual Targets combines the individual targets matching the selected target type into a single team target — no amount is entered.
  8. 8
    Flat amount only
    Enter the target amount
    Skip this step if using the ladder method — the target is calculated automatically from individual team member targets.
  9. 9
    Set the target frequency
    Choose Month, Quarter, or Year.
  10. 10
    Set the start month
  11. 11
    Open Advanced to scope and adjust the target
    Specialisations — leave empty to include every matter type, or select one or more so that only figures from matters under those specialisations count toward the target. Target daily hours (stretch target) — an optional higher daily figure to aim at. Public Holidays and Leave — choose Reduce to lower the target value in the periods affected, or Spread to distribute the value across the remaining workdays.
  12. 12
    Save
The target is now active and will appear in the relevant team performance views from the start month.
