Recognition overview

Understand more about Recognition in Sage.

Recognition—also known as Shout Outs, Badging, Crowdsourced Performance Review—lets you use social performance management across your organization. It lets all Team Members give visible and immediate positive feedback awards to others.

You can give awards to another Team Member in recognition of an achievement, task well done, outstanding contribution, and so on. You can't use Recognition to award yourself.

Hr Managers can't delete Recognition awards.

You enable Recognition by Policy and link it to a Job Profile. The Job Profile provides the list of values or competencies you want to use for Recognition. You need to provide it for Recognition to work:

  • In an org with more than one Policy, you can roll out the process group by group
  • You can use an existing Job Profile or set up a Job Profile just for use with Recognition. A dedicated Profile can have all the competencies you need. This isn't always practical with an existing Job Profile

There are two steps to setting up and using Recognition:

  1. Switch Recognition on in the Policy or Policies you want to use.

    The Policy also has settings for:

    • The Job Profile you want to use. You mist specify a Job Profile
    • Maximum numbers per Team Member per month for giving and receiving Recognition
  2. Select a WX Service and create a Recognition Process, selecting Recognition as the WX Process Type.
