Measurement options for key results

You can adjust your key results to be in a percentage, revenue-based format, or another metric number that your team tracks. Make sure to 'Show advanced options' in order to use these metrics.

Once this is set, it cannot be edited. If you want to change the metrics for a particular key result, you must delete that KR and create a new one; ie. you cannot go back after the key result has been saved and switch your metric from $ to %.
