# How to Edit a Metric in Tully

## Editing a metric in Tully allows you to update existing information such as assigned teams, unit preferences, or metric descriptions. While you cannot rename a metric or change its category, you can adjust other details to keep your data organized and accurate.

---

### Step 1: Navigate to Metrics and Assessments

On the **left-hand sidebar**, scroll down to the **Settings** section and click **Metrics and Assessments**. This will open your **Metrics Table**, displaying all the existing metrics in your organization.

### Step 2: Locate and Edit the Metric

Find the metric you want to update within the table.  
To make basic edits such as assigning different teams or changing unit preferences, click the **pencil icon** next to the metric.

You can now:

- Reassign the metric to new or different teams.
- Update the **Unit Preference** (e.g., change from kilograms to pounds, or feet to inches).
- Save your changes by clicking the **blue Save button**.

### Step 3: Edit the Metric Description or Add to Favorites

For more advanced options, click the **three-dot ellipses** icon on the far right of the metric row.

From this menu, you can:

- **Delete** the metric (trash can icon)
- **Edit description** (pen icon)
- **Add to favorites** (star icon)

### Important Notes

- **You cannot change the metric name or category.** If you need to rename a metric or change its category, you’ll need to create a new metric instead.
- Always review your edits before saving to ensure data consistency across teams.

---

**Example Use Case:**  
If you previously tracked “Broad Jump” in **feet and Inches**, but now want to record it in **inches**, simply edit the **Unit Preference** to “inches” and save your changes.
