# Progress Steps Model

The **Progress Steps model** simplifies how progress is calculated by using fixed values instead of continuous calculations. It's similar to the interpolated model but with a key difference: there are no intermediate values between the bands. This helps prevent distortions and makes evaluation clearer and fairer.

### How it Works

Instead of calculating exact progress based on the actual achieved value, the model uses "**fixed bands**" to indicate how much has been accomplished. The standard progress values are:

* **0%** → When the actual achieved value is below the **sub-target**
* **80%** → When the actual achieved value is between the **sub-target** and the **target**
* **100%** → When the actual achieved value is between the **target** and the **super-target**
* **120%** → When the actual achieved value reaches or exceeds the **super-target**

### Full Cycle

In this model, we use the **sub-target, target, and super-target values defined for the cycle as a whole**. See the example:
* Sub-target: 10
* Target: 20
* Super-target: 25

**Examples:**
* If the actual achieved value is 14, it's between the sub-target and target → Progress: **80%**
* If the actual achieved value is 23, it's between the target and super-target → Progress: **100%**
* If the actual achieved value is 26, it's past the super-target → Progress: **120%**
This model limits maximum progress to 120% to avoid distortions in targets and bonuses.

### Progress to Date (Month-by-Month)

Here, the logic is the same, but it considers the **planned and actual values for the current month**. The system calculates proportional targets for the month based on the cycle's sub-target and super-target.

**Example:**
* Planned: 5
* Proportional Sub-target: 2.5
* Target: 5 (the planned value itself)
* Proportional Super-target: 7.5
* Actual: 7 → Since the actual value (7) is between the target and super-target, the month's progress is **100%**.

### What if there's no sub-target or super-target?

* **No sub-target**: only the 0%, 100%, and 120% steps exist.
* **No super-target**: only the 0%, 80%, and 100% steps exist.
