Goalsheets are based on the pre-defined workflow. Goalsheets pass through multiple stages till they are finalized. These different stages of a goalsheet are referred as Goalsheet States. All the stages of goalsheets can be managed through Manage Goalsheet State functionality.
As an HR manager, you can change the goalsheet states of employees. This functionality is typically required when the goalsheet is stuck at a state or due to some reason the current goalsheet needs to be rejected and a new goalsheet needs to be created for an employee.
Note: The steps mentioned below are of Empxtrack Enterprise product.
To manage the goalsheet state, follow the path:
- Log in to the system as an HR Manager/ HR Admin.
- On the Homepage, click on the Goalsheets tabs.
