Use the Rating Scales window to define performance, proficiency, and weighting scales.

   To define a rating scale:

1. Enter a name and description for the rating scale.

2. Select the rating-scale type.

3. Select Default Rating Scale to make this rating scale the default of its type either within the business group or globally.

4. To make this rating scale available to all enterprise business groups, select Global.

   Note: You cannot change this selection after saving the rating scale. You can create global rating scales only if the HR: Cross Business Groups profile option is set to Yes.

5. Enter the first level and level name. For example, enter 1 in the Level field and Novice in the Name field.

6. In the Behavioral Indicator field, describe the behaviors that define this performance level (for example, the worker cannot work unsupervised). You can enter up to 2000 characters in this field.

7. Save your work.

8. Repeat Steps 5 through 7 for subsequent levels until the rating scale is complete.

9. To add attachments to the rating scale, position the cursor in the rating-scale name field and click the Attachments icon to open the standard Attachments window.

10. Save your work.
