Performance is the home for goals, review cycles, feedback, and 1:1s. HR admins open it from **Performance Hub** under **Performance**.

The page title is **Performance**. The subtitle reads **Goals, review cycles, continuous feedback, and 1:1s.**

## What you see

Five counts sit across the top. Each one opens its list:

- **Active goals** opens **Goals**
- **Reviews in progress** opens **Appraisals**
- **Feedback** opens **Employee Performance Feedbacks**
- **Review cycles** opens **Appraisal Cycles**
- **Upcoming 1:1s** opens **1:1 Meetings**

**Active review cycles** lists cycles that are still open. Each row shows the cycle name, start date, end date, and status. **View** opens that cycle. **Launch** creates appraisals for the matching employees. A success message names the cycle and how many appraisals were created and how many were skipped. If launch fails, the message is **Failed to launch cycle** and no appraisals are added.

When there are no cycles, the panel says **No active cycles** and links **Create an appraisal cycle**.

**Goal progress** lists recently updated goals, each with a percent. Open a goal name to edit it. When there are no goals, the panel says **No goals yet** and links **Create the first goal**.

**Continuous feedback** shows recent notes. Open a note to see the full feedback record. When the list is empty, it tells you to use **Give feedback**.

**Performance toolkit** links to the lists you use to set this up:

- **Goals & OKRs** — individual and team objectives
- **Appraisals** — self and manager reviews
- **Appraisal cycles** — batch review periods
- **Appraisal templates** — reusable review forms
- **KRAs & skills** — key result areas and competencies
- **1:1 meetings** — manager check-ins and agendas

## Start from here

**New goal** opens a blank goal. **Give feedback** opens a short form: **For employee**, **Reviewer (optional)**, and **Feedback**. **Submit** saves it and shows **Feedback submitted**. **Cancel** closes the form without saving. If the employee or the note is missing, the form stays open and says **Select an employee and enter feedback.**

You can also open **Performance** from search. **Give Feedback** and **New Goal** are quick actions there.

## On an employee

Open the employee, then **Connections**. Under **Performance**, **Goals**, **Appraisals**, and **1:1 meetings** list that person’s records. **+** starts a new one for them. The caption reads **Everything linked to this person. Open a line to see the records, or use + to add one.** If the panel cannot load, it says **Could not load connections.**
