Vote on a panel award or announce the winner

A panel award is decided by a group of people your company picks. Panel members vote on the nominees, and one winner selector announces the winner. You’ll get an email when it’s your turn, such as “Vote for Panel Awards Nominees” or “Announce Panel Awards Winner(s)”.

On a computer, these pages are under To-Do List in the panel on the left. You’ll only see the ones that apply to you.

Vote as a panel member

1. Open To-Do List and select My Panel Vote.
2. On Pending Vote, open an award to see its nominees. Select View to read a nomination.
3. Vote for each nominee. Depending on the award, you either give a rating from 1 to 5 stars, or a yes or no.
4. If the award has feedback questions, answer every one. Each answer has up to 150 characters.
5. Confirm with Submit. You’ll see “Successfully Voted!”

Awards you’ve voted on move to My Vote(Ongoing Award), and closed ones to My Vote(Past Award). Each award shows when voting ends. If you don’t vote in time, the nominee shows “Oops!! You missed to vote”.

Announce the winner

1. Open To-Do List and select Announce Winner.
2. On Pending Announcements, open the award. Each nominee shows the Average Rating or Average Vote from the panel.
3. Use Filter By if you want to hide nominees nobody voted for.
4. Choose the winner:
   • If the award has one winner, select Announce Winner next to that nominee.
   • If it can have several, tick each winner, then select Submit. You can’t pick more than the award allows.
5. Add Remarks(if any), then select Submit. You’ll see “Awarded Successfully”.

The winners get their award. Every other nomination for that award is declined. Past results are on Past Announcements.

Usually the points come from the winner selector’s budget. If there isn’t enough, you’ll see “Insufficient budget or Budget holder not found!”

Review nominations first

Some panel awards have a reviewer who checks nominations before the panel votes. If that’s you, open To-Do List → Panel Nomination Review. Approve or decline each nomination on Pending Review.

If something goes wrong

You don’t see To-Do List or these pages. You’re not on a panel. Panel members are chosen by your HR team.

“Select atleast one winner” Tick at least one nominee before you select Submit.

“Your approval is under Process! Please check after sometime.” Someone is already announcing the winner for this award. Wait a few minutes and check Past Announcements.

These steps are for the web.
