Customize OKR layout | Objectives and Key Results | Zoho Sprints Help

Customize OKR layout

The Objectives and Key Results creation form is composed of fields that help capture the details that need to be recorded. Zoho Sprints offers a default layout for both Objectives and Key Results. However, you can customize the default layout with all the required fields. This enables you to include additional fields apart from the default fields. So, you can introduce custom fields into the form's layout based on your requirement. After you've customized the layout, your default layout will display the newly added custom fields along with the default fields.

Benefits

  1. Build a custom creation form with custom fields.
  2. Enhance the type of data that you have in your OKR's.
  3. Use the various options available for custom fields to capture unique data types.
  4. Introduce sections to categorize the fields into subheadings.
