Protect privacy on the company feed

  • The feed does not display the reward amount automatically.

  • Avoid writing the dollar amount in the public message when it should remain private.

  • Turn off Post to Company Feed for fully private recognition.

Avoid duplicate rewards

  • Use caution with event-based spot rewards.

  • Do not create an event-based reward for a behavior that is already rewarded in the Goal Center, such as a birthday, unless duplicate rewards are intentional.

Use the employee shortcut

  • Go to Company > Employees.

  • Select the dollar sign in the Actions column on the employee row.

  • Enter the amount and message, then send.

  • To reward an administrator, go to Company > Administrators, open the administrator profile, and select Send Reward.
