Set Up Calibration nBox Reports

Set Up Calibration nBox Reports

  • Create the Calibration nBox report.
  • Security:
    Custom Report Administration
     domain in the System functional area.
The calibration values you map onto an nBox report determine the report fields that Workday updates after calibration is complete. You can:
  • Map tenanted calibration values to the nBox grid.
  • Define box labels.
  • Add help text to guide managers with employee placement during the calibration activity.
Example:
  • The
    Calibration: Potential
     value updates the
    Potential
     field.
  • The
    Calibration: Talent Based Performance Rating
     value updates the
    Talent Matrix Review Rating
     field.
Complete these steps for every nBox report you use for calibration.
  1. Access the
    Set Up nBox Report
     task.
  2. Select the calibration nBox report you want to configure.
    Don't use nBox reports referenced in ongoing calibration events. Instead, Workday recommends that you create a new calibration program and link it to a new nBox report with the updated calibration values.
  3. In the
    Define the Rows
     and
    Define the Columns
     sections, add labels and map calibration values.
    If an nBox report is used in a completed or in-progress calibration event, don’t change the values in the
    Define the Rows
     and
    Define the Columns
     sections.
    In the
    Source Value
    , map a single field value in your Workday tenant to each column and row in the grid. The source field is the
    Group By Field
     that you selected for rows in the calibration nBox report definition. The
    Source Value
     represents the final value that writes back to the worker after Calibration is completed.
  4. (Optional) Click
    Continue
     and define box names and help text for the calibration nBox report.
    Each row represents a box in the nBox grid with the row and column mappings shown. Each box is labeled with the
    Box Name
     and displays the
    Help Text
     when you hover over the label.
