Set up key dates

Key dates control when your compensation review takes place, when reviews and approvals are due, and when all changes made within the review cycle go into effect within your primary ChartHop organization.

To set up key dates:

1. From the left sidebar, select Comp or select More and select Compensation reviews.
2. Open an existing compensation review with a status of Not started or Paused.
3. Select the Key dates tab.
4. Choose a date for each key date field:
• Cycle starts - This is the date on which you plan for the compensation review cycle to start (in other words, when you will launch the review and all reviewers and approvers will be able to start accessing the compensation review cycle). By default, ChartHop sets this date two weeks into the future. Please note that a compensation review cycle is not active until you launch it manually. Learn more.
• All reviews due - This is the reviewer deadline. After this deadline, reviewers have view-only access and cannot make any more edits. Only final approvers can make edits and approvals.
• Final approval due - This is the final approval deadline. After this deadline, final approvers have view-only access and cannot make any more changes. By default, this date is set six weeks into the future. This field is required.
• Effective date for payroll - This is the date where all changes proposed and approved during the review cycle go into effect.
5. Once entered, all dates are saved automatically.
