Additional Data

Both Actions and Indicators have Additional Data tabs which allow you to input quantitative or qualitative updates. 

Actions have four Additional Data tabs – Guidance, Case Studies, Progress Updates and Stories. 

Whilst Indicators have six Additional Data tabs – Guidance, Case Studies, Monitoring, Progress Updates, Stories and Charts 

  • Guidance can be used to reference benchmarking standards, certification schemes, guidelines on how to meet desired Outcomes 
  • Case Studies can be used to share inspirational best practice on specific Actions or Indicators 
  • Progress Updates can include short written updates on progress towards a particular Action or Indicator or a RAG (Red, Amber, Green) rating
  • Stories can capture qualitative photographic updates such as events or organisation milestones 
  • Monitoring captures quantitative updates that typically have a defined unit and target value – number, percentage, volume etc 
  • Charts that are relevant to an Indicator can be uploaded to graphically illustrate quantitative progress 

The Additional Data of an Action or Indicator can be updated in Mindmap view, Table view and Document view.
