What is a recommended approach to handling legacy goals in Oracle Goal Management?

• A. Add goals to the goal library
• B. Create private lists for each department
• C. Remove legacy goals entirely
• D. Convert them into tasks

Answer: (A)

When you have legacy goals, adding them to the goal library is the best approach because it centralizes those objectives in a single, reusable repository. The library standardizes definitions, targets, and measurement criteria, so goals from different teams can be aligned to the same framework and easily reused in new performance cycles. This preserves historical context while ensuring consistency, enabling easier reporting and governance. Keeping legacy goals in private department lists creates silos and makes reporting and cross-team comparisons harder. Removing legacy goals would erase valuable historical data that might be needed for trend analysis. Converting goals into tasks changes their nature from strategic objectives with impact measurements to simple actions, which undermines how performance is tracked and evaluated. Adding legacy goals to the library preserves their intent, makes them reusable, and keeps the performance process coherent across the organization.
