Gamification for hitting individual targets

Updated this week

Overview

Using a Target Leaderboard slide on the TV is the best way to display this kind of incentive!

A Target Leaderboard slide will display performance that is ranked. Rather than being ranked purely on an amount of activity or performance like our Metric Leaderboard, this option ranks players based on their percentage towards hitting their target.

There are many positives to using this form of leaderboard, a main one being that it is a good way to create a level playing field when you have a range of experience and abilities in your team.

The other great use case is this instance, when you want to run an incentive based on target attainment as provides a really visible way to track who has achieved this. The players who hit 100% or higher will turn green, making it super clear who has qualified for the incentive prize!

Step-by-step Instructions

You need to be an admin on OneUp in order to edit/create TV slideshows.

  1. Ensure that you have set your users targets on the OneUp Targets page before attempting to create a Target Leaderboard. If you need help doing this, our Setting Targets article should help.

  2. In the navigation bar at the top of the OneUp page, select TV.

  3. From the menu that appears, click Slideshows near the top.

  4. Click Edit on the slideshow you wish to add the Target Leaderboard to.

  5. In the slideshow editor window that opens, click the blue + Create Slide button in the bottom right.

  6. From the pop up window that appears, click the Leaderboard category which will roll down to reveal 3 options for Leaderboard slides.

  7. Select Target Leaderboard and work through filling in the Slide Info, Configuration and Background Image steps.

  8. Once you're finished, click Create Slide, and add your newly created leaderboard over into your live slideshow by clicking the small blue Add button in the top right of the new slide, in the slide selection pane (on the right of this page).

  9. Click Save Changes at the bottom of the page to save the new slide in your slideshow.

Cloning metrics for incentives

If the metric you want to create an incentive with already has its own set of targets against it (for example for normal day-to-day tracking), but you want to create separate targets for a special incentive (if a mission or league don't quite fit the bill), the best way to achieve this is to clone the metric.

With this method, you can keep your typical target in tact and track your incentive progress at the same time.

To clone a metric:

  1. Go to the Metrics page under the kebab menu at the top right of OneUp.

  2. Click +Create Metric at the top right of the page and select Activity metric (rolling and conversion metrics don't support targets currently).

  3. Name your metric - give it a name that distinguishes it from the original metric or one that fits your incentive. For example "Revenue Incentive", "Lunch Club" or "Holiday Incentive".

  4. Choose the relevant metric type - quantity or currency.

  5. In the Children section, click Add and find the metric you want to clone. You can add multiple metrics here if you like.

  6. Click Create.

  7. You can now add targets to the cloned metric by following our targets guide here.

Troubleshooting

  • If your slide is not appearing, you may have forgotten to click Save Changes in the bottom right of the slideshow editor (easily missed).

  • If your targets aren't displaying as the full value you set in OneUp, this will be because it is displaying them in a pro rated fashion (i.e. if you are half way through the month you will only see your target as half of the figure). This is easily changed in the during step 6 when setting up this slide. Under the option Include future data added to OneUp during this time period? select Yes.

  • If you have No Goals for This Period Found appearing when you view your new slide, you haven't set targets in OneUp for the metric you've selected!
