    Important Upgrade Considerations

    • After upgrading to Goal Framework for SPM version 2.3.0 (Xanadu), you must run the Migrate BreakdownInterval To Checkinfrequency scheduled job. This job migrates values from the Review frequency and Breakdown interval fields into the Check-in frequency field on target records, ensuring data consistency.
    • There are no additional upgrade tasks or changes specifically introduced in the Yokohama release.

    New Features

    • Enhanced Target Breakdowns (Xanadu): Enables creation of Daily, Weekly, or Monthly target breakdowns based on the Check-in frequency selected for a target. For example, selecting Monthly for a one-year target creates 12 monthly breakdowns for progress tracking.
    • There are no new feature updates in Yokohama.

    Changes to Existing Features
