Weightings for objectives, goals (if included in reviews), and behaviors are necessary to calculate scores for each section of the review and create the dot placement on the Performance-Values Matrix.
The weight scale is 1 to 10 with 10 being the most. The weighting should be set to communicate the importance of each objective within the set of assigned objectives and the importance of each behavior within the set of assigned behaviors.
Weights are typically set when the single review is created, or at the review template level. Weights can be updated when editing existing current reviews.
Here is how the weighting works:
Weight % = (x/y)*100 where x = the weight selected and y = the total sum of weights selected for all objectives or behaviors on the review.
Note: The weighting math equation has not changed, therefore, the weight % where the weight scale of 1 to 4 was used are not affected.
Select the same weight to apply the same weight % to multiple objectives or multiple behaviors.
For example:
Performance Objective # 1 - weighted 10 = 50%
Performance Objective # 2 - weighted 5 = 25%
Performance Objective # 3 - weighted 5 = 25%
