| Impact on goal | A numerical value that represents the importance of this target to its parent goal. By default, the value is (1) Neutral. The available options are: * (0) No impact * (1) Neutral * (2) Moderate * (3) High * (4) Very high * (5) Maximum {#eaw-create-new-target-form__ul_uhw_3h1_ybc} Note: This field is available only when the sn_gf.weighted_average_enabled system property is set to Yes. |
