Goal Management
Goal Management enables the setting and tracking of goals across the various levels of an organization, supporting an ongoing performance conversation throughout the year. Business leaders communicate high level initiatives, and managers and employees can collaborate to set goals that align to the organization’s direction. Personal development plans are delivered to allow employees to track their personal growth and career development.
As an integral part of Oracle Human Capital Management (HCM), Oracle Fusion Goal Management (Goal Management) provides organizations a best-in-class solution to track and manage organizational and individual goals and closely align them with the overall talent management process.
Collaboration amongst employees is fostered by goal sharing and the ability to collaborate on goals in the enterprise social network. Goal Management seamlessly integrates with Oracle Fusion Performance Management to enable a point-in-time evaluation of goal achievement.

Creating Goal Plans:-
Goal plans are a collection of performance goals grouped by common characteristics. For example, a specified time frame and a particular department that must work on them. Depending on security privileges assigned to your role, you can create goal plans.
Manage Goal Plans:-
You can do these actions:
- Edit a goal plan.
- Delete a goal plan.

Managing Goal Plan Sets
Goal plan sets are one or more goal plans that you assign as a group to a population set. For example, group all goal plans intended for an upcoming salary review period in a goal plan set and assign the set to workers involved in the review.
These are the advantages of using goal plan sets:
- You can group goal plans to evaluate the overall progress and performance of a worker.
- You can assign specific goal plans with relative weights to a specific population.
