# How to set target approvals

> Set the target number of approved suppliers for a product to track supply chain health

This guide shows you how to set the target number of approved suppliers for a product. This helps you track whether you have enough approved sources for each raw material.

***

## Set target approvals for a product

1. Navigate to **Products** from the main menu
2. Find the product and click to open it, or click **Add Product** if creating new
3. Enter the number in the **Target Approvals** field (e.g., 3 if you want 3 approved suppliers)
4. Click **Save**

## Why set target approvals?

| Benefit              | How it helps                                                                       |
| -------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Track progress       | See how many approved suppliers you have vs. your target                           |
| Analytics visibility | Product Analytics shows which products meet, nearly meet, or are below target      |
| Health Score         | Your overall Health Score reflects the % of products meeting their approval target |

## Check your progress

Once you've set targets, go to **Analytics > Products** to see:

* Your overall Health Score (% meeting target)
