WorkPerformanceCycle

WorkPerformanceCycle represents feedback that is gathered for the purpose of assessing the performance of a specific set of employees.

Supported Calls

create(),  delete(),  describeLayout(),  describeSObjects(),  getDeleted(),  getUpdated(),  query(),  retrieve(),  undelete(),  update(),  upsert()

Additional Considerations and Related Objects

Please do not use the API to manage performance summary answers, and instead change answers in a performance summary cycle through the Work.com  UI in  Salesforce. The business logic that is associated with answering a performance summary question (that is, sharing rules as defined by the recipient and the management hierarchy and validation checks on specific answers), may not work if the API is used.

  • Creating and linking questions in the API could create multiple questions on the same question set.
  • Editing a question in the API could impact the UI and the Calibration feature without the right steps and order of operations.
