In the EmployWise performance management system, if the plan includes configuration for the Progress Tracker which allows the appraisee/appraiser to periodically check-in or track their progress on the goals and target set for the period, we have introduced a new feature in this functionality. The progress tracking has now been made an event-based activity which will require the appraisee to track progress on the required goals or KRAs and then submit the tracker in order to mark the exercise complete.
The ÔÇÿSubmitÔÇÖ option will now be available at the bottom of the goal sheet for the appraisee and the appraiser to use and complete the activity of progress tracking. The subsequent relevant notifications and Need to act will be triggered thereon.┬á
This feature is readily available for use to all organisations using the progress tracking functionality, please reach out to the EmployWise support team for further details.

Module: Performance Management System
1. Introduction of ÔÇÿObserverÔÇÖ in the PMS module
The performance management system in EmployWise has been enhanced with the addition of an 'Observer' who can be added in the PMS workflow through a set of configuration changes.
An Observer will be able to see the appraisals and also add comments at the KPI level wherever required so that the reviewer can take them into account and act accordingly. At the same time, given the number of people involved, action by this role is not mandatory for every appraisal nor for every KPI in every appraisal. The action of the Observer is purely independent and optional in the appraisal process, if no inputs are received from the observer in any of the appraisals, the reviewer will be free to take a call and close the appraisal which will still be visible to the 'Observer'. Thus this will provide the observer to have a voice in the process without the responsibility of rating a large number of appraisals.
This functionality can be configured in the performance plan by navigating to Settings -> Performance Plan -> Selecting the observer as the Functional Supervisor. The observer can also be copied to the relevant system-generated mail notifications; i.e. when an appraisee submits the rating and when an appraiser completes rating the appraisees.
The prerequisite to implementing this functionality is to map Functional Supervisors to each appraisee enrolled in the performance plan so that the correct ÔÇÿobserverÔÇÖ is kept in the loop for each appraisal.
Please get in touch with the EmployWise Support team to have this feature configured for your organization.

In the Performance Module, depending on the configuration, the actor responsible for setting the goals/KRAs can now reset the goals between the period of submission and approval.
The appraisee or the appraiser whoever is responsible for entering the KRAs in the application may submit them and will have the option of resetting them, if any changes are required in any aspects of the goals i.e. KRAs, targets or weightages.

The appraisees or appraisers can amend any aspects of the goals till the PMS plan status is at ÔÇÿGoals submittedÔÇÖ stage. An email notification can be defined for the same- ÔÇÿGoals ResetÔÇÖ which will keep the appraisee or appraiser informed whenever this option is used.

1. Addition of the KRA/Goal Weightage in the list view of the Goal Sheet under Performance Management System
In EmployWise PMS the list view illustration of goals/KRAs now displays weightages against each goal/KRA which is accessible to the Appraiser/Appraisee/Reviewer/HR. They can view the details of the Goal Sheet by clicking on the List View option. They can see each key result area along with its target and ratings as well when the ratings are complete.
The addition of the Weightage on the List view provides a consolidated view of the Goal Sheet to correlate and analyze the significance of each goal/KRA in an easy to read format.
2. The Appraisee will directly be taken to the Goal Sheet during Goal Setting
In order to start the goal-setting process, the appraisee can either select Set Goals by clicking on the Need To Act option available on the homepage of the EmployWise Portal or select the My Plan option under the Performance tab.
The new feature will now direct the Appraisee to the Goal Sheet and not the Overview screen during the process of Goal Setting, after following either of the above steps.

1. Medical Allowance and LTA (including arrears) shouldn't be part of pay heads in KMP report
Since the details of Medical and LTA/LTC group are already captured separately in KMP report, separate pay heads of Medical Allowance and LTA should not be included again in the report.

We have added new state Calicut (Kerala) in lwf employers (statutory form)
LWF rule for this location is different from Kerala State hence employees whose work location is Calicut & that location has been mapped in Statutory employers then LWF deduction will be done based on this now onwards.
Purpose:
Whenever we open payhead for employee selection like in Flexi then employee must understand the meaning of that payhead for him/her.
By adding this, it is easy to show description with payhead for better understanding of payhead and employee can choose amounts accordingly for example while submitting Flexi.
What is the change?
While submitting self rating by any appraisee, our system calculate total score and that gets submit without viewing to the appraisee.
What's new?
Total Score will be visible at appraisee's end during self rating stage. While doing the self rating, the total score will dynamically change whenever a rating is given on any kpi/competency and also an appraisee will be able to view the total score before submitting the rating to the next level in both goals and competency section.
