Sales Target

Hi

 

This maybe a real simple question, but how is the best way to get a static target figure, into my Data.  I would like to put a £100,000 monthly sales target, but am drawing a blank on the best way to do this

 

Many thnaks

I tend to use an Enter Data query and just hard code my goals and such. You can also just create a custom column or measure like so:

 

Measure = 100000

You can always create a Create a COLUMN

Sales Target = 100000
