Timeline & Notifications

Timezone Selection

Use the dropdown in the top-right corner to select the timezone in which your review cycle will run.

Best practice: If your organization operates across geographies, choose the timezone where the majority of your workforce is located for maximum alignment.

Set review dates:

Define the dates for each stage of the performance review using the calendar picker, suggested prompts, or by entering a custom date.

Configure notifications: Set the time when email notifications should be sent and define the frequency of reminder emails to keep participants on track.

   • Options to trigger manager reviews:

We recommend using the second option, as it allows for a more precise AI-generated summary based on feedback from multiple stakeholders.

Note: The manager’s form remains open for submission till the sign-off date, even if the manager misses the designated submission date.
