In this step, you define forms of appraisal.

A form of appraisal contains information on

  • The name of the appraisers and appraisees (or objects appraised)
  • Object types that are allowed as appraisers and appraisees (or objects appraised)
  • Evaluations paths to create to-do lists for groups of objects (optional)
    Example
    By specifying an evaluation path, you can determine all the participants of a course, and prepare the appropriate course appraisals.

When you create a form of appraisal to be used with the appraisal type anonymous individual appraisal or anonymous multisource appraisal, make sure that the role name of the appraisers does not reveal their identity.

The forms of appraisal are also taken into account in the workflow Approving and Following Up an Appraisal (WS 10000105). The form of appraisal linked to the appraisal model on which the appraisal is based determines whether or not the approval process is triggered for the appraisal. For more information, refer to the SAP Library (HR - Human Resources -> PA - Personnel Management -> Personnel Development -> Workflow Scenarios om Personnel Development (PA-PD) -> Approving and Following Up an Appraisal (PA-PD).

Example 1

Form of appraisal    Appraisers    Appraisees

Personnel appraisal    Supervisors    Employees

Course appraisal    Participant    Course

Possible Combinations

Appraisers    Appraisees

P    P

US    P

P    US

US    US

The settings in the example above would result in the following:

  • Appraisers and appraisees must be of the object type Person or User
  • Object selection for appraisers and appraisees is restricted to objects of the object types Person and User
  • In the appraisal, the appraisers are referred to as Supervisors, and the appraisees as Employees

Note
If you select the object type User, the system proposes the current user as the appraiser when you create an appraisal.

Example 2

Form of appraisal    Appraisers    Appraisees

Course appraisal    Participants    Course

Allowed combinations

Appraisers    Appraisees

P    E

US    E

The settings in the example above would result in the following:

  • Appraisers must be of the object type Person or User, and appraisees of the object type Course
  • Object selection for appraisers is restricted to objects of the object types Person and User, and to objects of the object type Course for appraisees
  • In the appraisal, the appraisers are referred to as Participants, and the appraised objects as Courses

'To-Do' Lists

A 'to-do' list enables you to draw up a list of objects for which you need to prepare appraisals. You can decide whether you specify an

object that you want to appraise, and then look for suitable appraisers, or whether you specify an appraiser, and look for objects to appraise.

You can restrict the number of objects selected using the following criteria (and applies to all object types in the form of appraisal):

  • Evalution path
  • Selection ID

    Note
    Since the selection ID can theoretically contain an evaluation path, make sure that you have specified either an evaluation path or a selection ID. If you specify both by mistake, the system uses the selection ID.

For more information on evaluation paths, refer to the IMG step Maintain Evaluation Paths. For more information on selection IDs, refer to Selection IDs. For more information on 'to-do' lists, refer to the SAP Library (Human Resources -> Personnel Management -> Personnel Development -> Appraisal Systems -> Appraisal Creation -> Preparation of an Appraisal -> 'To-Do List Creation).

Prerequisites

  • You must have created the object types in question.
  • You must have created the appropriate relationships (see Maintain Relationships).
