Peers are colleagues who work closely with the employee and give input for the review. If the review cycle asks for input from peers, the review only starts after the peers have been chosen.
Who chooses the peers?
In the review cycle, the admin sets who chooses the peers under Who selects peers?: the employee or the manager. By default, it's the employee.
The admin can add an instruction, for example "Choose two colleagues from your own team". You see that instruction when you choose the peers.
Choose peers
Open the review via the notification or via the tasks on your dashboard.
Click
Select peers.Choose the colleagues who give input.
Confirm your selection.
As soon as you confirm the peers, the review starts and everyone involved gets an invitation to give input. If the review is still waiting for a manager, it starts once there is a manager.
Change peers
Employee: you choose the peers once, while the review is still in
Preparation. After that, you can't remove peers.Manager or admin: you can add and remove peers until the review is up for approval, also if the review is already in progress.
Note: If you remove a peer who has already given input, that input is lost.
