Talent Summary Page

HC_TALENT_SUMMARY

View the Talent Summary pagelet content by selecting or deselecting pagelets that should appear on your Talent Summary page.

Personalize Content: Talent Summary Page

PORTAL_HPCOMP

Define the Talent Summary pagelet content by selecting or deselecting pagelets that should appear on your Talent Summary page.

Standard PeopleSoft role-based security ensures that managers can access only the pagelets appropriate to their roles.

The Talent Summary page delivers two performance history pagelets: a graphical view of performance history and a table view of performance history.

The pagelets available on the Personalize Content page are based on permission lists. If a user does not have access to a permission list, for example, if the Manager Dashboards - JPM (HCCPJP2200) permission list is removed from the Manager Dashboard role, the profile based pagelets may not be listed for selection from the Personalize content page.

The Personalize Content: Talent Summary works like the Personalize Content: Manager Dashboard Page.

Personalize Layout: Talent Summary Page

PORTAL_HPLAYOUT

Define the Talent Summary pagelet layout by selecting either a 2- or 3-column layout style you wish to display on your Talent Summary page. Identify the pagelets that should appear in each column by moving pagelets from one column to the next. The columns list only those pagelets you have selected on your Personalize Content: Talent Summary page.

The Talent Summary page is optimized using the 3-column layout.

The Personalize Layout: Talent Summary works like the Personalize Layout: Manager Dashboard Page.

Use the Talent Summary - Employee Selection Criteria page (HR_DR_DIRECTREPORT) to select a direct or indirect report from this page to view the employee’s talent summary data.

  • Talent Summary

  • Manager Self Service > Talent Summary

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Talent Summary - Employee Selection Criteria page . You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

Talent Summary - Employee Selection Criteria page

View information about your direct and indirect reports. As a higher level manager, you will see your employees in a hierarchical list, or hierarchal grid (Hgrid) format. This enables you to expand or collapse the list to view or hide the indirect reports that report to your direct report managers.

Field or Control

Description

As Of Date

Displays the current date, which dictates the reporting structure that appears in the employee list as of this date.

Find Employee

The Find Employee link above the header grid enables you to select from the same list of direct and indirect reports as if you expanded all nodes.

To search within your direct reports organization, click the Find Employee link. Enter criteria on the Find Employee page (HRDR_SRCH_EMPS_SEC), and then click Search. Select an employee to open in the transaction.

The Find Employee link appears only when the transaction applies to individuals. It does not appear for transactions where you select groups of individuals until you get to the point where you select individuals in that group.

Note: The Direct Reports UI setup determines which employees are available for selection and which fields appear on the <Application Context> - Employee Selection Criteria page. See Configuring Direct Reports Functionality.

HR Status

The HR Status field appears on the Employee Selection Criteria page only if the Allow Indirect Reports check box is selected on the Direct Report Transaction Configuration page.

Inactive employees can have active employees reporting to them directly or indirectly.

Select

Click this button to open the Talent Summary page for this person.

The Select button may display inactive for these reasons:

  • You do not have access to an individual in the Direct Reports setup but you have access to their direct reports.

  • The employee’s status is inactive. Having the grid display the inactive person enables you to access employees under the inactive person who have not yet been reassigned to a new manager.

  • The row reflects a position instead of an employee.

Expand (Expand) or Collapse (Collapse)

Click these buttons to expand or collapse the hierarchal grid to view or hide your indirect reports (the direct reports of your subordinates).

Use the Talent Summary page (HC_TALENT_SUMMARY) to view the Talent Summary pagelet content by selecting or deselecting pagelets that should appear on your Talent Summary page.

Navigation:

  • Click Select for an employee on the Talent Summary - Employee Selection Criteria page.

  • Click the name link of an employee from the Direct Line Reports pagelet of the Manager Dashboard.

  • Click the View in Talent Summary link from the Actions menu of an employee in the Direct Line Reports pagelet of the Manager Dashboard.
