Once you have completed calibration, end the Scoring phase to allow managers to finalize and share review packets with their direct reports. Ending the scoring phase will not automatically share review packets with reviewees, the packets will need to be shared by the reviewees manager or an admin.
Ending scoring will allow managers to finalize review packets and write their summaries. However, admins and calibration custom role owners can continue updating calibrated scores after calibration has ended, including after review packets have been shared. To edit a calibrated score after a review packet has been shared, you will need to first un-share the packet.
Prior to ending the calibration phase if you would like to lock rating questions included in calibration from being edited by the manager after ending calibration if reviews are reopened, you can bulk accept ratings or upload a CSV with calibrated scores. When a downward review is reopened after calibration has ended any score with a calibrated rating assigned will be locked and uneditable by the downward reviewer however if no calibrated rating is assigned that rating would be editable by the manager.
End Scores & Calibration
- Within the Calibrate Ratings section, under Calibrate groups, select Close calibration.
-
Select how you would like to end the scoring phase:
- Reopen manager reviews for all reviewees: This gives the managers the ability to add additional context to their downward reviews based on the calibrated scores.
- Reopen manager reviews for reviewees where there are changes in calibrated scores: This would reopen manager reviews for managers with direct reports whose calibrated scores differ from their pre-calibrated scores.
- Continue without reopening manager reviews.
- [Optional] If you choose to reopen manager reviews, you will have the option to Allow all managers to view calibration notes regardless of whether their downward review is reopened:
- Managers/Downward reviewers can view calibration notes within the Your reviews option review context panel when resubmitting their review
- Managers/Downward reviewers can view calibration notes within the My Team's Reviews option when writing their review summary
- Managers of managers do not have visibility into calibration notes
- Toggle on Send notifications if you want to notify managers scoring has ended.
- Click End scoring.
If you have chosen to reopen only manager reviews where there are changes in calibrated scores, you will have the opportunity to write different notifications for managers who have reviews reopened and managers who do not.
Note: If a manager has some direct reports with reopened reviews and some that were not, the manager will receive the notification set for when the reviews are reopened.
