When creating a review cycle, templates can be assigned by review group (self, manager, etc.) and fields, such as location, department, or role.
Before you start
User field assignments are based on the fields of the reviewee, not reviewer. For example, assigning a different peer review template to employees based on office location will change the template peer reviewers will submit for any employee assigned to that specific office location.
The available Lattice default field is Department. For additional options, you can use custom fields.
Custom fields: You cannot use Custom Relationship field types to override a template. Only multiple choice or number fields are available.
Ensure that the user field has been created and assigned to your employees. See Managing Custom Fields.
You cannot override templates by user field once a review cycle has been created.
If enabled, you can't change the field used for overrides after cycle creation. You can switch templates for each group of reviewees within that field after creation, however.
Template overrides cannot be used in Talent Reviews.
