How do I Set up Rewards and Recognition?

Here are the steps to set up Rewards & Recognition (R&R):
  1. Navigate to the EngageWith Dashboard.
  2. Click on the dropdown under Rewards from the left pane.
  3.  Click on Configuration.

  1. Under the Rewards Section, you can configure recognitions in two ways by setting up the points for each:
    1. Kudos: Appreciate the employee for anything you want.
    2. Shoutout: Appreciate the employee for reaching a milestone, always one step ahead in achieving, etc.
  • Check the box to set up the Approval process. It will allow your users to send out recognitions with their Manager's approval.

  1. Next, you can set the initial points balance.
    1. Note: This is the number of Points each user will get at the beginning of the month.
  2. If you wish to carry forward Points, you can place a checkmark to select.

  1. Enable Rewards: Attach a monetary value to recognitions. Empower employees to redeem their recognition points from our exhaustive vendor catalog.
  2. Points conversion rate: Set up a conversion rate for each point that can be redeemed by your teammates.
    1. E.g., If John sends a Kudos (10 Points) to Carol, as per the conversion rate of 1 Point = $2, Carol gets a total of $20 that he can redeem.
