Symptom
Is there a way to mass import comments into performance forms?
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Performance Management
Resolution
It is not possible to mass import comments into performance form via the front-end or through Provisioning. Comments can be loaded via API, but the username and password of each user would be required in order to proceed. If customers choose to proceed with uploading comments via API, customers assume the risk of compromising the integrity of the performance process.
Users (Manager, Employee) should complete comments on their own when the performance form is in their inbox. This is the intended purpose of the performance process since performance reviews are considered documents of record and can be used in legal proceedings.
If you think this possibility would be useful for your business, you can share your ideas via Customer Influence Portal for our Product Management team to review. Once you have submitted your idea, other customers and partners can vote for it and your votes help us to prioritize ideas that we will consider for upcoming product releases. However, please note this functionality is not likely to be implemented because it compromises the integrity of the performance review process.
