Planner

The Target Row Page

One row, one period, in full — pace, the rate needed to finish on target, a projection, and the change history for that line.

Every breakdown line on a plan's Overview opens a page of its own. It is the smallest unit the Planner works in: one item, account, or employee, in one period.

A target row page: metric cards, average unit price, and Pace & Projections.

Getting There

Expand a period card or a row card on the plan's Overview and click a line in the breakdown. A View Full Plan link at the top of the page takes you back.

The Header

The row's name, its plan type, the period dates, and the grid-column type, with four actions:

ActionWhat it does
ShareCopies a public read-only link to this one target to the clipboard.
EditOpens a form for this target line — the figure, the period, and the metric.
DeleteAsks to confirm, then removes this target line from the plan. This is the only way to take a target off a plan.

Metric Cards

One card per metric — value, and units on a Quantity × Rate plan. Each shows the actual, the target beneath it, a progress bar, the attainment percentage, and how much is still to go. "Remaining" never goes negative: once the target is met it reads zero.

The Six-State Status

This page carries a richer status than the rest of the Planner, because it knows the pace as well as the position.

StatusMeaning
ExceededActual is 100% of target or more.
AchievedActual is 95% to 99% of target.
On TrackBelow 95%, but the projected total for the period reaches 90% or more.
At RiskBelow 95%, and the projection lands between 70% and 89%.
BehindBelow 95%, and the projection lands under 70%.
MissedThe period has ended below 95%. Only appears once the period is over.

Once the period ends, pace stops mattering: the outcome is Exceeded, Achieved, or Missed on the actual alone.

⚠️This scale is not the plan's scale

Everywhere else in the Planner — the plan cards, the period cards, the row cards — colour comes from attainment alone, in five bands starting at 80%. This page adds pace and uses six states starting at 95%. The same row can read At Risk at 65% on the plan Overview and On Track here, because it is on pace to finish. Neither is wrong; they answer different questions.

Pace and Projections

RowHow it is worked outWhat it tells you
Daily Run RateActual ÷ days elapsed in the period.The pace achieved so far.
Required RateAmount remaining ÷ days left in the period.The pace needed from today to finish on target.
Projected TotalDaily run rate × the full length of the period.Where today’s pace lands by period end.
Projected %Projected total as a percentage of target.The figure that decides On Track, At Risk, or Behind.

Read the first two together. A required rate close to the run rate means the target is reachable without changing anything; a required rate at twice the run rate means it is not, and the sooner that is said out loud the better.

Both are shown for value and, on a Quantity × Rate plan, for units — so you can see whether the gap needs more units or a better price.

History

The History tab lists changes to this target line: who, when, and a field-by-field before and after for each edit. Entries are marked Created, Updated, or Deleted.

ℹ️History records edits made on this page

Changes typed into the plan grid and written with Save Changes do not produce history entries. A target that has only ever been maintained from the grid shows "No history yet" — that is accurate, not a fault.
