What will happen to existing targets when the team member hierarchy type is updated to Manager hierarchy?

When the team member hierarchy type is updated to Manager hierarchy, all existing targets will transition to a Read-only status. This change reflects the new structure where a manager is likely to have a different level of oversight and engagement with targets compared to non-manager team members.

In a Manager hierarchy, the focus often shifts towards monitoring and reviewing performance rather than modifying targets directly. Making the existing targets Read-only ensures that the integrity of the target data is maintained and prevents unauthorized changes, thereby allowing managers to oversee their team’s progress without altering established targets. This is crucial for maintaining a clear record of performance against the goals set prior to the change in hierarchy.

Understanding this transition is essential for effectively managing team dynamics and ensuring that targets remain aligned with the organization's performance metrics.
