How to Assign a Goal Cycle as Default
What is a Default Cycle?
The Default Cycle is the goal cycle that is automatically selected across all goal-related pages in ThriveSparrow.
- Whenever users create a goal or view goals, this cycle is pre-selected.
- It helps enforce a consistent goal cycle across the organization, ensuring everyone’s goals are aligned to the same active period.
Steps to Make a Goal Cycle Default
- Navigate to the Goals module.
- Go to the Cycle List view.
- Click the three-dot menu next to the cycle you want to set as default.
- Select Make Default.
That cycle will now be marked as your default, and all new goals will be saved under it automatically.

Alternate Way to Set a Default Goal Cycle
While creating a manual goal cycle, you can also set it as default during setup:
- Click on New Cycle.
- Enter the cycle name, start date, and end date.
- Check the box labeled Make this cycle default.
- Click Save.
The created cycle will automatically become your default cycle, and all new goals will be saved under it unless changed.
