Creating Employee Groups

You create employee groups to allow managers to assign performance goals to specific groups of employees in your organization, as opposed to your organization as a whole. Managers may create and assign a goal to an employee group only, and this goal will only apply for that group. All groups you create are accessible to managers when creating group goals for use in the review process. See Related Help Topics at the bottom of this page for more information.
