ePerformance Overview
PeopleSoft ePerformance is a self-service evaluation management application for managers, employees, and human resources (HR) administrators. You can use ePerformance as a tool for planning, collaboration, communication, assessment, and monitoring evaluations for two purposes: performance and development.
Performance evaluations typically assess and plan employee performance to meet current job requirements and administer salary treatments; while development evaluations are used to assess and plan employee development needs either because of gaps in the skill set that is required for a current job or to meet future requirements.
ePerformance supports the entire planning and evaluation process, from planning and aligning employee performance or development goals with enterprise objectives, through assessing and rewarding employee performance results within the right behaviors.
Note: Throughout this documentation, we refer to evaluation as a generic process name that includes both performance and development processes. The term performance in this documentation is used to mean both performance and development, unless otherwise stated.
ePerformance provides you with the flexibility to establish evaluations for different purposes by setting up document templates that define evaluation processes. With this application, you can:
Generate evaluations.
Define evaluation criteria.
Introduce mid-period checkpoints to track employee progress.
Invite participants to provide feedback and manage participant reviews.
Enter evaluation data, including notes, ratings, weights, and comments.
Consolidate feedback from multiple sources into the manager/mentor's evaluation.
Submit the manager/mentor evaluation for review and approval.
Perform administrative tasks, such as entering preliminary ratings, transferring, reopening, canceling, and deleting documents.
Create and publish business objective pages.
Cascade objective items down to individual performance documents.
