After creating a Questionnaire and Review Template, it's time to launch your Performance Review. Click on any link below to navigate to the part you're looking for:

Launch a Performance Review

Only authorized people with access to the Manage Review tab can launch, view, and manage performance reviews. Please check with your Admin about your role's accessibilities.

Step 1: Select Template

  1. Navigate to Performance > Manage Review

  2. Click + Launch Review to start

  3. Give it a name

  4. Select a review template. You can also view available templates at this step.

  5. Click Next

Step 2: Select Employees

  1. Moderator: users who can calibrate the manager review. This is a new role available beginning from the April release.

  2. Reviewees: Depending on the type of your Review Template (Org Chart based or Project-based), you will see different options for Reviewees:

    • For Org Chart based review, there are 3 options:

      • All Employees: all employees are required to participate. If you want to exclude an employee, please add them in the Except Employees box

      • Specific Employees: only chosen employees will participate in the review

      • Employee Groups: a pre-defined group of employees chosen to participate in the review.

๐Ÿ“Œ Note:

  • If the manager is on leave or unable to assess the performance of their employees, you can appoint a new manager to take over

  • This step may only be performed when selecting employees for performance reviews; after a performance review has been launched or scheduled, you CANNOT edit the manager

  • For Project-based review, you must determine the Project Manager and Team Members. Make sure you have a list on hand at this step

  1. Pick out the Reviewees (or Project Manager and Team Members)

  2. Click Next to go to the last step

Step 3: Set Timeline

  1. Set a review period

  2. Select the review period of each component:

    • Peer selection: Managers select who can give peer reviews*

    • Peer Review: Selected employees review their peers

  3. Click Launch to start.

After a performance review is launched, the selected participants will receive email notifications on the start dates to complete the review.

๐Ÿ’ก Tips:

  • The performance review will begin on the earliest start date and end on the latest due date, depending on the timeline of components (Self Review, Manager Review, Peer Review).

    • Example:

      • The Self Review schedules to start on 20 Sep 2023 and end on 25 Sep 2023

      • The Manager Review schedules to start on 20 Sep 2023 and end on 30 Sep 2023
