Before you start
The peer nomination limit applies to the number of reviewers a reviewee or their manager can nominate. For example, if the limit is three, John Smith can nominate up to three peer reviewers for himself or for a direct report.
It does not limit how often an individual can be nominated as a peer reviewer. More than three colleagues or managers can still nominate John.
This helps avoid selection bias. If the limit applied to the number of peer reviews someone could write, the first three people to nominate John would prevent others from selecting him—even when those employees may work more closely with him and he would be the more appropriate reviewer.
Limit the number of peer nominations.
When you reach the settings to configure peer reviewers, enter the number of nominations in the box next to Limit number of peer reviewers reviewees can request.
Enter the maximum number of peer reviewers that can be requested.
Note: If you do not want to set a limit, leave this field blank. Inputting '0' will prevent employees from nominating any peers.
Make any other desired configurations and click Save & continue.
Employee view while nominating peers
When an employee goes in to nominate peers, they will see that the number is limited. They can view this information by following the steps outlined below.
Navigate to Performance > Performance reviews
Select the button to the right of the cycle name
Select the Nominate peers button
Note: Users will see a message at the top of the peer nomination page that says "Add up to (limited number) more peers"
As an admin, you can also override or add additional peer reviewers for anyone during the Review Cycle.
After nominations are complete, admins and managers will be prompted to approve them. If someone has been frequently selected for peer reviews, a peer selection warning banner appears to notify managers or admins.
