Sometimes you need to create a Key Result where there is an "upper limit" that you don't want to pass.
For example, say you want to minimize the lost stock items of your merchandise, and you've determined you don't want this number to go higher than 10 per quarter.
To set this up, there are a few options:
Select the Target type as Stay at or below with a Threshold of 10.
If the number of lost stock items was higher than 10 last quarter (or the same quarter last year), select the Target type as Decrease to with the start value as the last value e.g. 18 and then a target value that's less than 10, e.g. 9.
If success is binary, meaning it only counts if you're less than 10, then you can select the Target type as Binary. The start value will automatically be 0 with a target value of 1. Then at the end of the quarter, if you've lost less than 10 you mark it as a 1, meaning yes.
💡 Pro tip: If you want to keep a value below a certain limit over time, it's better set up as a KPI, since this is something that you will always be working on.

Once you create the KPI, click on the KPI name (from the user, Team, or Company page), to open up the modal and set a monthly target:
