Create a Custom Goal Cycle

• Goal cycles can be created automatically via goal cycle time periods. To learn how to auto-generate goal cycles, see Set Automatic Goal Cycles.
• The goal cycle start and due dates are not editable once the cycle has been published.
• Goals will not automatically end after the goal cycle due date –– They will only be marked overdue.
