    Summary of Target Breakdowns Migration

    The target breakdowns migration process allows administrators to migrate existing review frequency and breakdown interval values to the new check-in frequency field using the Migrate BreakdownInterval To Checkinfrequency scheduled job. This migration is crucial for ensuring that target records are accurately updated and maintained for effective portfolio planning.

    Key Features

    • Migration Process: Existing values from the Review frequency and Breakdown interval fields are transferred to the Check-in frequency field.
    • Target Breakdown Creation: Depending on the values in the Review frequency and Breakdown interval fields, target breakdowns are created accordingly, even if the breakdown interval is set to None.
    • Support for Review Frequencies: The migration supports various review frequencies such as Yearly, Quarterly, Monthly, and Fortnightly, with specific handling for unsupported options.

    Key Outcomes

    After running the migration job:

    • For targets with a breakdown interval set to None, the check-in frequency is populated based on the Review frequency, and corresponding target breakdowns are created.
    • For targets with a breakdown interval set to Quarterly or Yearly, the check-in frequency reflects the Review frequency, and quarterly breakdowns are established with values distributed linearly across the time period.
    • The current actual values and planned target values for each breakdown are automatically populated, facilitating better tracking and management of targets.

    As an administrator, when you run the Migrate BreakdownInterval To Checkinfrequency scheduled job, the existing values in the Review frequency and Breakdown interval fields are migrated to the Check-in frequency field in the target records.

    The value in the Actuals to date field for the target and values in the Planned target value and Actual fields for the target breakdowns are populated based on the current actual value of the target and values in the existing target breakdowns.

    Target breakdowns migration for targets with breakdown interval set to None

    After running the job, the value in the Check-in frequency field for a target is populated based on the existing value in the Review frequency field of the target. If the existing value in the Review frequency field was set to any option other than None, then target breakdowns will be created for such targets based on the existing review frequency of the target. Even though Breakdown interval was set to None for a target, target breakdowns will be created for the target based on the existing review frequency of the target.

    The following table describes how the check-in frequency value is populated for targets with different values in the Review frequency and Breakdown interval fields.
    Table 1. Target breakdowns migration with breakdown interval set to None
    Review frequency (Before upgrade) Breakdown interval (Before upgrade) Check-in frequency (After upgrading and running the job)
    Yearly None Yearly
    Quarterly None Quarterly
    Monthly None Monthly
    Fortnightly None Fortnightly

    The Fortnightly option is retained and no target breakdowns will be created because the Fortnightly option is no longer supported.

    After the owner or a contributor of the target updates the check-in frequency for the target, the target breakdowns will be created accordingly.
    Weekly None Weekly
    Daily None Daily
    None None None

    In this case, no target breakdowns will be created.
    For example, consider a scenario where details of a target are as follows before upgrade:
    • The base value and target value of the target is 0 and 100, respectively
    • The review frequency is set to Monthly and Breakdown interval was set to None
    • The start date and end date of the target are 2024-01-01 and 2024-12-31, respectively
    • The current actual value of the target is 60 and the current month is August
    In this case, after running the scheduled job 12 monthly target breakdowns are created for the target and the current actual value as 60 is populated in the August monthly breakdown. Also, the planned target value is populated for each breakdown.

    Target breakdowns migration for targets with breakdown interval set to Quarterly or Yearly

    After running the job, the value in the Check-in frequency field for a target is populated based on the existing value in the Review frequency field of the target. Then, target breakdowns are created for the targets based on the existing review frequency of the target.

    The following table describes how the check-in frequency value is populated for targets with different values in the Review frequency and Breakdown interval fields.
    Table 2. Target breakdowns migration with breakdown interval set to Quarterly or Yearly
    Review frequency (Before upgrade) Breakdown interval (Before upgrade) Check-in frequency (After upgrading and running the job)
    Quarterly Quarterly Quarterly
    Quarterly Yearly Quarterly
    Note:
    For targets with breakdowns interval set to Yearly, irrespective of the target is of type cumulative or non-cumulative, after running the scheduled job quarterly target breakdowns will be created and the Target value distribution is set to Spread linearly across the time period (cumulative) for the target.
    For example, consider a scenario where details of a target are as follows before upgrade:
    • The base value and target value of the target is 0 and 80, respectively
    • The review frequency is set to Quarterly and Breakdown interval was set to Yearly
    • The start date and end date of the target are 2023-01-01 and 2024-12-31, respectively
    • The target is of type non-cumulative
    • The actual value achieved in each quarter is 10 starting from Q1-2023 till Q2-2024
    • The current total actual value of the target is 60 and the current quarter is Q2-2024
    In this case, after running the scheduled job 8 quarterly breakdowns are created and the Target value distribution is set to Spread linearly across the time period (cumulative) for the target. The current actual value for Q1-2023, Q2-2023, Q3-2023, Q4-2023, Q1-2024, and Q2-2024 quarterly target breakdowns are populated as 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60, respectively. Also, the planned target value is populated for each breakdown.
