Giving Kudos to Coworkers in the Employee Center

You use Kudos to recognize your coworkers for a job well done. You could give Kudos to someone for making an outstanding contribution, providing a great idea, or giving you help on a project. You can give Kudos to more than one coworker. You describe why you are giving them Kudos, and then choose some organizational values that your coworker demonstrated.

The best way to give Kudos is to use your Employee Center role.

To give Kudos to coworkers:

  1. From the home screen of your Employee Center role, in the Kudos portlet, click in the Give Kudos to... box. If your Kudos portlet is in the narrow configuration, click Give Kudos.

  2. Begin typing a coworker’s name. As you type, suggested names appear.

  3. If you want to give Kudos to more than one coworker at a time, add more names.

  4. In the text field, type a description for the Kudos that explains why you want to recognize your coworkers.

  5. In the Supported Values section, click the organizational values that this Kudos demonstrates. When you hover over a values icon, a description of that value appears.

  6. Click Give Kudos.

Your kudos appear in the Kudos portlet.

Note:

You can also give Kudos from other roles by going to Setup > Performance Management > Kudos > New.

Implications of Deleting Employees

When employees leave your company, you should inactivate or terminate them, rather than delete their employee record. If you decide to delete an employee record from your NetSuite account, this has the following effects on Kudos:

  • If the employee was the only recipient of any Kudos, those Kudos are deleted.

  • If the employee was one of several recipients of Kudos, the employee’s name is removed from the Kudos, but the Kudos is not deleted.

  • If the employee gave Kudos to coworkers, you cannot delete the employee record until you delete all Kudos that the employee gave. Instead, you may want to inactivate or terminate the employee. For more information, see Inactivating Employee Records and Employee Termination.
