Qudos 3 includes the facility to make documented procedures directly available from both the Objectives and Action modules. Your organisations' business rules for those activities may be viewed from the relevant Procedure buttons, or Select menu item:

in main list forms.

If the Objective is of a substantial nature, requiring numerous actions to be taken, it may be appropriate to use the initial action as a 'Project Management' tool that links to up to 99 subsidiary actions via its 'Related Actions' tab.
