Steps: Configure Additional Reviewers for Competencies

Steps: Configure Additional Reviewers for Competencies

Create an employee review template with a
Competencies
section.
When you create an employee review template, you select which
Competencies
sections to send for additional review, but not specific competencies within each section. Additional reviewers can rate any or all of the listed competencies. Although Workday uses weighting to calculate results, this information isn't visible to reviewers.
You can include up to 3 additional reviewer types for each
Competencies
section.
  1. Access the
    Maintain Additional Reviewer Types
    task.
    Complete the task:
    Option Description
    Name
    Workday displays the name as the reviewer type on the
    Get Additional Reviewers
    subprocess.
    ID
    We recommend using an ID that corresponds to the
    Name
    field.
    Description
    This guides the review participants in selecting group members.
  2. (Optional) Select the
    Inactive
    check box.
    Workday removes the reviewer type as an option on review templates.
    To view which review templates use each additional reviewer type, click the
    Template Usage
    number.
    Workday displays the additional reviewer types on the
    Get Additional Reviewers
    step of the business process based on their order in this grid.
  3. Access the
    Configure Employee Review Template
    task.
    1. Click
      Edit
      .
    2. In the
      Other Reviewer Options
      section, select the
      Enable Additional Reviewers for Competencies Section
      check box and specify anonymity options.
    3. In the
      Template Section Configuration
      section, click
      Configure Section
      on the
      Competencies
      row.
    4. In the
      Section Configuration
      section, select additional reviewer types. This option is available only when you select
      Enable Additional Reviewers for Competencies Section
      in the
      Other Reviewer Options
      section. You can configure the additional reviewers types on the
      Maintain Additional Reviewer Types
      task.
  4. (Optional) Add the
    Get Additional Reviewers
    subprocess to a development plan or a performance review business process. A common configuration is to launch it in parallel with the self-evaluation step.
Workers can add additional reviewers to
Competencies
sections in employee review templates.
When an administrator enables the
Talent Effect
option in the leave type for an employee on a Leave of Absence, you can't select this employee as an additional reviewer for the
Get Additional Reviewers
subprocess.
