Admins can disable the Objectives feature for their entire organization and re-enable it at any time without losing data.
> Note: Your organization may have renamed this feature. If you don't see "Objectives" in your navigation, check with your admin for the name used in your account.
Before You Begin
- You must be an Account Admin to complete these steps.
- This feature is available on the Perform, Legacy Focus, and Total Platform packages.
- To restrict access without fully disabling the feature, see Configure Objectives settings for collaboration (Admin) instead.
Disable Objectives
- Click the Settings gear in the bottom-left corner of your 15Five account.
- Select Features from the dropdown menu.
- Click Objectives.
- Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Disable Objectives.

Re-enable Objectives
- Click the Settings gear in the bottom-left corner of your 15Five account.
- Select Features from the dropdown menu.
- Click Objectives.
- Click Enable Objectives.
What re-enabling looks like: The Objectives item reappears in the left-hand navigation for everyone in your organization. All previously created OKRs are visible again.
