Add a Skill to an Appraisal

Depending on permissions and the configuration of the workflow on which an appraisal is based, managers and/or employees can add skills within an appraisal.

To allow a manager to create and assign skills, an administrator must first configure these permissions in a workflow, and this workflow must be associated with the appraisal when it is launched. If the workflow does not allow the addition of skills, the Manage Skills button does not display.

• To add skills, click Manage Skills. This opens a modal window.
• Click on the Skill Category name to view all the skills included in it.
• Click the Add next to the skill that you want to add. You may also be required to enter or adjust weights for the skills. Skills must add up to a total of 100%. A running total is kept for you.
• Once all of your selections are made, click the "Submit" button.

To add a skill within an appraisal:

1. On an appraisal where you want to add a skill, click a skill category link at the top of the screen. For example, Main Skill Category.
2. Click Manage Skills.
3. On the Manage Skills modal, click a skill category name in the Available Items list.
4. In the list of skills that displays, click the plus icon for the skill(s) you want to add.
5. If required, in the Selected Items list, enter or adjust weights for the skills. Skills must add up to a total of 100%. A running total is kept for you.
6. When finished, click Submit.
