About this task
Boards can be configured in three ways:
- Strategy-based board: Tracks strategic plans or strategic priorities to align high-level direction with team execution.
- Goal or target-based board: Tracks goals, targets, or a combination, with filtering by entity type and entity to focus on the most relevant goals.
- A combined strategy and goals-based board: Tracks both strategy (strategic plans and strategic priorities) and goals or targets together.
Note: By default, only records with the Active field set to true are displayed.
