You can edit a period target or priority after they are created by clicking on the small arrow on the far right side of the priority. This is the same way you will update a priority as you make progress.
There are three types of priority progress tracking: Percentage based, task-based, and customizable bounds. See the walkthrough video for more details. We will be releasing a deeper explainer of each of the progress types coming soon!
The status of your priority will not automatically update based on the due date. You control the status of your priorities and period targets.

You are now ready to create your period targets and priorities that you'll want to complete!
