The goal appears in the Goal grid. A goal number is assigned to each goal, objective, or intervention combination when it is created. This goal number acts as a unique identifier for this combination in grids and picklists and displays the combination in chronological order.
To display only active goals on the Integrated Service Plan document, select the Include only active goals on document checkbox.
Only goals with a status New, Continued, or Revised appear in the document. Goals that are Attained or Discontinued on or after today's encounter also appear on the document.
Note: The following list represents the grid filters:
- Need field filters:
  
  All: the default filter that displays all Need records that have an associated Goal.
- Goal field filters:
  
  All: the default filter that displays all Goal records.
  
  When you select a goal as filter, the grid is sorted by the Objective column.
- Program field filters:

Note: By default, Ascending is selected based on the configuration on the BH Foundation Configuration template. The first sorting of the generated grid is based on the Program followed by the goal number.
