Archiving Goal Maps

Outdated goal maps or the maps where all goals are accomplished, are sent to the archive. All the archived maps are displayed in the Web Application in the KPIs – Goals – Goal Map Archive section.

Archiving a goal map

To send a map to the archive, open the KPI section in ELMA Designer, go to Goals, open the context menu and click To Archive (fig. 1).

In order for the changes to become active, publish the KPI model. After publication, the map will be moved from the Goal Maps section to the Goal Map Archive (fig. 3).

Here is a list of available actions for archived goal maps:

View different periods (for example, you can view the period when the goal map was created and see the statistics on SMART tasks and KPI statuses at that time);
Open and view pages of the map elements: goals, groups of goals and activities. New activities and SMART tasks cannot be created.

Restoring an archived goal map

You can restore an archived map and make it active. For that, in ELMA Designer on the KPI tab open the map context menu and click From Archive (fig. 4).
