# Building a goal that shows open opportunities

An open opportunity goal refers to opportunities that have not yet reached a closed status, meaning they are neither "Closed Won" nor "Closed Lost." 

**Go to: Definitions → Properties → Goals → Create New Goal**

Set up your goal:

* **Goal Name**: e.g. Open Opportunity
* **Category**: It’s reasonable to differentiate this goal from actual funnel stages goals, so we suggest creating a new category: Status: open
* **Create a goal:** Custom Goal -> Deal Property Changed
* **Define Criteria**:
  * Set: property is "CreatedDate"
  * To only capture Opportunities that are still open, you need to ensure that the deal is not marked as closed. Select the deal\_is\_closed field and set the condition to "is false." This will filter out closed deals and keep those opportunities that remain open. 

Save your goal by clicking **Define Goal**
