Cause

This is an expected system behaviour.

Resolution

 The matrix 9 box axis is always displayed in Capital letters. The blue icon does not support an adjusted rating scale, for example if you map:

    • 0 to 1.74 =1
    • 1.75 to 2.74= 2
    • 2.75 to 3 = 3
    • The blue icon will not obey the rules, for 2.74 it may be displayed as High

Per system design the Performance Review will ignore the custom weights, but the How vs. What matrix in the report will show the correct plotting.
Custom weights will not work for Objective-Competency grid in PM report.
