Hi all,

I'm in the process of creating a performance review cycle and would like to set up notifications so that when an employee submits their objectives to a line manager that the manager receives a notification informing them that they need to take action.  I feel as though i've hit a bit of a stumbling block and need your help to try to work through it.

Looking at some of the Totara guides it seems as though this is possible, but only at the completion of each stage.  At the moment the stages in the performance review that I've set up rely on the employee entering their objectives for the year and then the manager reviewing these before pressing "complete stage".  By the looks of it this means that there couldn't be a notification triggered when an employee enters their objectives asking the manager to review these as they are both under the same "stage" in the process?

My second idea, if the above is true, would mean that the employee submitting their objectives and the manager reviewing them would need to be separate stages in the process. However this would seem to mean that the manager would then need to keep going back and forth between their review page and the employees page in order to see what they had submitted and to then input their own adjustments?

Any help or guidance that could be provided on this would be very much appreciated as I feel as though i'm a bit stuck at the moment.

Thank you in advance,

Adam
