What is the difference between saving and submitting review content by reviewer?
Reviewer can either save or submit review content prior to talent review meeting. If a reviewer chooses to submit review content it will not just be available for the meeting dashboard but immediately update workers profile with new updated ratings. Instead if manager chooses to just save the content, edited ratings will only appear in the talent review meeting, but the worker profile will not be updated.

What happens if talent review content isn’t complete by the deadline?
If the review content is not prepared by reviewers prior to the meeting, the most recent ratings of workers would be displayed on the talent review meeting dashboard. If the ratings are outside the data validity guidelines. If reviewer doesn’t prepare review content for any worker who doesn’t have any rating attached to his profile then that worker would appear in the holding area of the Talent Review meeting dashboard at the start of the meeting. The worker doesn’t appear in the box chart matrix. Meeting participants can rate the worker during the meeting.
Can reviewers see data for workers they don’t manage when preparing content?
No. Reviewers will see only those workers they are managing. Reviewer can see profile data for their direct and indirect reports only. However, during the meeting, such as in a conference room when the facilitator dashboard is projected on a screen, reviewers who are also participants can see profile data for all persons being reviewed.
What is the significance of Data Validity Guideline and Latest Data
While creating talent review meeting, facilitators can set a data validity guideline to ensure that ratings are updated within the time frame specified by the guideline. On the Prepare Review Content page, an icon appears next to ratings that fall outside the guideline to warn reviewer to update the ratings. When reviewer changes a rating, the icon disappears. However, it doesn’t disappear if the rating doesn’t change, even if you remove and restore the current rating. All ratings, updated or not, are recorded as updated when you submit the ratings.
