Add Weighted Goal element in Performance Review Template

Most of our users have goals that need to be weighted individually. Currently, all the goals within an Item group are given an equal weight

For example a user might have 3 goals. The first goal is critical to his growth and needs to be weighted at 50%. The second one is important but less critical and justifies a 35%. The last goal is fairly routine and should only count for 15% of the Goal score.

I would like to have a 'weighted goal element that can be tied to a Goal rating box, which would be used to apply the proper calculated score to the overall Goal score.

For example I have a template with 40% Competency weight and 60% Goal weight, and I have 3 goals within the Goal section ie Goal 1, Goal 2, Goal 3 and Goal 1 = 50%, Goal 2 = 35% and Goal 3 = 15%

I have a 1-5 rating scale with 1 the lowest and 5 the highest.

If Goal 1 scores a 2, Goal 2 scores a 3 and Goal 3 scores a 5 then the calculation would look something like...

( 2*.5 + 3*.35 + 5*.15) *.6 = 2.8

If all the goals were weighted equally the Goal score would be 3.33

To summarize, I would like a new element to chose from the New Item dropdown list for Weighted Goals. This would be linked to a Goal rating box. That rating score X the Weighted Goal percentage would be used to calculate the proper Goal section.
