Set up Review Cycles

Review cycles are a great way to create reminders for things such as 1-to-1 meetings. You can control their frequency, who they are sent to, and add triggers so that employees are automatically sent an email or task as a reminder.

Only employees with administrator access can follow these steps:

Create a review cycle

1. Click your name in the top right, then click Settings.
2. On the settings menu click PERFORMANCE, then click Review cycles.
3. Click ADD NEW.
4. Name the review cycle.
5. Select a frequency - once you click SAVE, you cannot edit this to something else, so choose carefully.
6. Select which teams you want it to apply to.
7. Click SAVE.

📌TIP: To duplicate a review cycle click on the papers icon. To edit a review cycle click on the pencil icon. To delete a review cycle click on the rubbish bin icon.

Note:

Add a trigger to a review cycle.
