Set a North Star Objective Metric for a Scorecard

Select the Scorecard you're editing and navigate to the Set the Objective Score section.
Click Set North Star Objective.
Choose Custom from the list of options.
Click the star icon next to the metric you want to set as your North Star metric.
Click Confirm North Star Selection.
Click Save Scores, then type "I UNDERSTAND" in all capital letters twice to confirm.
