Usage

Performance Notes Page or My Performance Notes Page

Search for and enter performance notes.

Performance Notes - Add/Update Notes Page

HR_NP_NOTE

Enter a new performance note. You can also view and modify an existing performance note on this page.

Performance Notes - Confirm Delete Page

HR_NP_MESSAGE

Confirm a delete of a performance note.

In Notepad, when you delete an item that is associated with a note, the note is not actually deleted from Notepad. However, since the item doesn't exist on the document, the note is no longer associated with that item.

(Classic) Person Search Page

HR_PSS_SEARCH

Search for and select a recipient manager for a performance note transfer.

Use the Performance Notes page or My Performance Notes page (HR_NP_NOTE_SRCH) to search for and enter performance notes.

Navigation:

  • Manager Self Service > Performance Management > Maintain Performance Notes > Performance Notes

  • Self-Service > Performance Management > Performance Notes > My Performance Notes

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Performance Notes page.

Performance Notes page

Note: The two Performance Notes pages (manager and employee) work similarly, except that the My Performance Notes page enables employees to search for and enter notes on their own performance and the Performance Notes page enables managers to search for and enter notes on other employees.

Selection Criteria

To add or view performance notes for a specific employee, enter an ID and, optionally, a date range. If you do not specify dates, all notes for the employee regardless of date entered appear in the Existing Performance Notes for this Employee grid.

Note: The ID field appears only on the manager version of this page, since employees can only view their own notes.
