Associating the primary goal or target for work and planning items
You can associate a goal or target as the primary for the work and planning items where the items contribute to achieving the goal or target. You need different roles to set a goal or target as the primary for work and planning items.
You can associate a goal or target as primary to work and planning items by populating the Primary goal and Primary target fields on the Project, Demand, Program, Feature, Epic, and Planning item forms.
You can also associate non-primary goals or targets to work and planning items from the Goal/Target Relationships related list on the Project, Demand, Program, Feature, Epic, and Planning item forms.
Once you associate work and planning items to goals or targets, you can check these relationships directly in the goal's or target's related list or in the respective work or planning item’s related list.
The following table describes how the primary goal or target can be set for each work and planning item.
