Recognitions Web Component

Deprecated. The Recognitions web component has been deprecated and replaced with the Recognitions block. While still supported, no updates or fixes are expected for web components.

Overview

The Recognitions web component displays an interface where participants can recognize one another. Depending on your recognition setup, anyone can recognize anyone, managers recognize team members, or only people in the same group recognize each other for contributions and accomplishments and grant rewards based on a predetermined budget.

The web component has two views: a form and a list. The form is used to submit a recognition. The list shows either the recognitions the user has given or the recognitions the user has received. By default, the web component shows recognitions given along with a link to the form view. You can use multiple web component to show different combinations of information.

Recipient Lookup

The search in the "Who do you want to recognize" field is a prefix search. Typing "jo" will search for "jo*" which will match joe, josh, etc. The search supports "or" and "and", although "or" isn't necessary. Typing "jo mi"will find josh and michael in the search results. Typing "jo and fi" will find anyone with both of the letters as the beginning of words in their name, such as "josh finnis".

The recipient lookup searches firstName and lastName. If necessary, you can use the additionalName preference to add a preferred name to differentiate between users with the same or similar names. Show me
