Removing Measurables What to do if your Scorecard data appears missing

Maintaining clean, relevant Scorecards is essential to the Data key component. Teams should regularly review the Measurables on their Scorecards to ensure they're displaying the information the team needs to see at a glance to review:

  • The health of the organization
  • Progress on quarterly or annual goals
  • Necessary analytics

 

Removing Measurables

There are two ways to remove a Measurable from a Scorecard. 

  • Permanently delete a Measurable
  • Remove a Measurable from a single Scorecard

 

Permanently Delete

Only a Measurable's owner can delete it. 

  1. Click My 90 from the left navigation.
  2. Right-click the Measurable you want to delete.
  3. Click Delete Measurable from Scorecard.
  4. Click I understand… Delete anyway.

Deleting a Measurable removes it from each Scorecard it's on, any Processes it's linked to, and your Vision if it's used there.

 
 
 

Remove from a Scorecard

To remove a Measurable from a Scorecard, any licensed user on the team can:

  1. Click on the checkbox of the Measurable you want to remove.
  2. Right-click the Measurable.
  3. Click Remove from group.
 
 

 

What to do if your Scorecard data appears missing

If your Scorecard is showing "No data to show" or Measurables have disappeared from a team, the most common causes and recovery paths are below.

If a Measurable was removed from a Scorecard (but not deleted)

Removing a Measurable from a Scorecard does not delete it or its historical data — it just removes it from that team's view. You can add it back using the Add Existing Measurable option:

  1. Go to your Scorecard and click New Measurable.
  2. Select Add Existing Measurable.
  3. Search for the Measurable by name.
  4. Check the box next to it and click Add.

All historical scores will reappear once the Measurable is back on the Scorecard.

If a Measurable was permanently deleted

Permanently deleting a Measurable from the Measurable Manager removes it and its historical data and cannot be undone from within Ninety. If this happened, contact support. In some cases, the technical team can restore deleted data from the backend, though this is not guaranteed.

If your Scorecard data disappeared after reordering groups

If data disappears after you open the group order window and switch between groups (even without saving changes), this is a known product issue. Contact support immediately and include the name of the affected team. The technical team can restore Scorecard groups and Measurables from the backend.

If the Scorecard shows "No data to show" but Measurables are still listed

This typically means scores haven't been entered for the visible time period, or the Scorecard filter is set to a period with no data. Check that you're viewing the correct team, time period, and Scorecard type (Weekly, Monthly, or Quarterly) before assuming data is missing.
