How Managers Can Justify Difference in Manual and Calculated Ratings
If there’s a difference in the calculated and manual section or overall ratings for an employee, managers can justify the difference by providing their comments.
They can provide the justification in the Manager Justification for Difference in Manual and Calculated Ratings field. This displays only if the configuration setting is enabled in Section Processing on the Structure tab of a performance template. If the manual rating changes or if calculated ratings are regenerated, the difference in ratings are processed again.
- To the manager hierarchy and HR specialists with access to the performance document.
- To a matrix manager participant (if the participant role is configured with Allow role to view worker, manager and participant ratings, comments and questionnaires selected).
The justification isn’t visible to the employee. And it’s available to managers in the printable performance document.
The justification is enforced if you use the evaluate as manager task. It isn’t enforced when updating performance documents using HCM Data Loader (HDL).
