Some frequently asked questions we get from admins when it comes to using Reviews.
Admins and their own reviews
Employees who are Admins lose their admin privileges when it comes to their Reviews.
This means they cannot approve their own reviews.
They cannot move their review forward or back.
They cannot assign stand-in managers.
They will not be able to see manager-only questions.
They will not be able to see their manager's input before it is shared.
How do I assign a different manager to an ongoing review?
Via the Progress and Results page, check the check box next to the participants whose reviews are being updated to a new, stand-in manager > scroll to the small Actions dropdown directly above the list of participants > Click Assign stand-in managers.
For more information on this see the article Managing Reviews
What notifications do admins get when they need to approve a review?
Only when an admin is assigned to a review will they get notifications that they have reviews to approve. The notifications they will get are:
A home card on the homepage under “Items that need your attention”
An email for each review they have to approve.
Who can see the Progress and Results page in a Review?
Admins will be able to see the Progress and Results page for the section of the organization they have content access.
Managers will be able to see the Progress and Results page only of their team.
If Managers have multiple levels of reporting AND the visibility for the review has been set to "Management Tree", those managers will also have access to the reviews of the entire organization under them.
An admin has several reviews to approve but only some are showing up on their “My Reviews” tab. Why?
Admins will see a notification "card" on the Performance Dashboard, and receive an email notification asking them to complete their approval step. The notifications are activated only after the previous participants have completed their step, and they will also appear under the Reviews Overview page as an item under the To do list.
What do the email notifications look like?
Review Launched - Employee Input
Review Launched - Managers are notified
Employee Input is done, and ready for the Manager's Input
1-on-1 Discussion
After the Manager has Shared the Review Contents
