What happens after I set the Site Target?

Summary

After you set a Site Target, it becomes a visible benchmark within your team’s workflow and dynamically influences which accessibility issues are shown, how your target score is calculated, and how dismissed issues impact your overall goal alignment.

Overview

Once a Site Target is configured, it acts as a guiding filter and visual indicator within the platform. It helps focus your team on the accessibility issues that directly align with your defined goals while continuously reflecting progress and adjustments.

What happens after setting a Site Target

Once set, the target icon is always visible to your team. As you are selecting the options, you will see the target move - it is represented as a small icon in the shape of a ‘target’ crosshair that appears along with the circular dial of your DCI score for Accessibility.

Impact on visible issues

Once the target is set for a site, only issues and potential issues that are related to your goal will be visible in the platform. If you dismiss issues, your Site Target will be lowered to reflect the dismissed issues, see Accessibility: How to dismiss occurrences of accessibility issues.

Site Target score configuration

You can also set a Site Target Score that ranges from 0% to 100%, see Accessibility Site Target Score.

Key takeaways

• The Site Target becomes a persistent visual indicator for your team
• Displayed issues are filtered based on your defined accessibility goals
• Dismissing issues lowers your Site Target accordingly
• You can define a numeric target score between 0% and 100%
