Considerations for Adding or Removing Competencies in Talent Profile Competency Sections

Here are some things to consider when adding or removing competencies in talent profile competency sections.

• Competencies added by managers or employees to the performance document are added to the employee's talent profile with the evaluator type configured in the performance template.
• Talent profile approvals aren’t triggered when adding or removing a competency directly in a performance document person profile competency section. If you use approvals in talent profiles and don’t want these to be bypassed in the performance document, you can use personalization to hide the add and remove buttons in the performance document.
• Any changes made to competencies in a person profile competency section in a performance document will update any other in-progress performance documents with person profile competency sections where the set goals or evaluation tasks aren't complete. For example, if a new competency is added in a midyear performance document, that competency is displayed in the employee’s talent profile and added to the end of year performance document, if created.
• Only competencies added directly in performance documents can be deleted. Competencies in an employee's talent profile that have come from another source, can’t be removed in performance documents, and must be removed from the original source.
• Competencies deleted by employees won’t be removed from other in-progress performance documents if they’ve already been evaluated by the manager.
