  13. Graph. Choose from the following:
    - An existing graph. Choose the graph and set the start value and target value. (You have the option to change this to a range value and/or add a stretch value target. A stretch value target will add a second target line to the graph.)
    - New Manual Update graph: Manual update requires a user to update the graph values
    - New Graph Calculated by Junior Objectives. This will auto update and uses the average percentage of sub-objectives. For example: assume we have an objective to reach $80,000 sales this quarter and we have 4 sales people, each with their own objective to reach $20k in sales. If each salesperson reaches 50% of their objective ($20k in sales) the auto update feature will calculate the objective as 50% complete.
