Why does the performance document contain competencies and goals before I have added any?

Your manager may have added competencies and performance and development goals directly to your performance document or imported them from other performance documents.

Your manager may also have updated competencies from existing model profile competencies, or goals from your list of goals on your My Goals or My Career Development pages, if either is available. When the document is created, it may also include model profile competencies, or other default competencies and goals if the template used to create the document is configured to include them. You can open performance documents from the Performance work area.
