Concept: Performance Review Management

You can use 2 methods to manage the workflow of performance reviews:

My Team's Performance Reviews

With this report, managers can view all in-progress and completed performance reviews for their employees and send back or pull forward a performance review under specific conditions:
  • At the
    Complete Self Evaluation
    initiation step, you can pull a review forward to the
    Complete Manager Evaluation
    step if it's the immediate next step.
  • At the
    Complete Manager Evaluation
    initiation step, you can send a review back to the
    Complete Self Evaluation
    step if it's the immediately preceding step and the review is in progress.
  • After the
    Complete Manager Evaluation
    initiation step but before the completion step, you can send a review back to the
    Complete Manager Evaluation
    initiation step. You must repeat the subsequent steps and the acknowledgment, but any comments that you previously entered are saved.

Manual Send Back

Administrators or other roles secured to the
Manual Send Back
action in the
Start Performance Review
business process security policy can:
  • Move an in-progress review from any step to any step.
  • Reopen a completed review and send it back to the
    Complete Manager Evaluation
    step. A manager then can use the
    My Team's Performance Reviews
    report to take further action.
    When you manually send back a completed review, Workday automatically skips:
    • The
      Get Additional Reviewers
      and
      Get Feedback from Review
      steps (if configured).
    • Steps that run concurrently with the
      Complete Manager Evaluation
      step.
