Recurring Meetings

Most of the meetings within the organization tend to be recurring in nature and it is essential to manage repeatable agenda, track real time information, assign action items and carry over open items from one meeting to next. OKRify meeting provides the ability to manage recurring meetings right in Salesforce CRM.

Recurring meetings can be created in OKRify by enabling the repeat flag when creating a meeting, once repeat is enabled the following fields will be available for selection in a meeting

  • Meeting occurrence – Weekly, Bi-Weekly and Monthly options are available now.
  • Carry over open items (Move not repeat open items to next meeting)
    • General items
    • Action items

Select the appropriate option to automatically move open items along with the comments to the next meeting when a meeting is completed. When a meeting is completed based on the selection in the meeting the appropriate items will be automatically moved to the next meeting. OKRify also provides the ability to view the history of all the meetings in the cycle.

Complete a Meeting

Completing a meeting is an important step to ensure all the agendas were addressed , actions items are tracked and any discussion points are clearly documented along with next steps. OKRify meeting provides the ability to complete a meeting which will complete the current meeting and create the next meeting based on the meeting occurrence settings.Recurring meetings are also automatically completed and the next meeting is created if a recurring meeting is not already completed. In the meeting settings, the number of days for completing a meeting before the next meeting can be configured.

Based on the carry over open items settings for a meeting, OKRify automatically carries over open items from one meeting to the next meeting. All the repeat items are automatically added to all the recurring meetings, in addition non repeat open items will also be carried over to the next meeting automatically. All the carried over items including repeat and not repeat items comments will also be automatically carried over to the next meeting.
