Setting up a compensation review campaign in Figures involves multiple steps. This article focuses on the very first step: defining the basic campaign parameters. These foundational settings are crucial for initiating your compensation review process.
Accessing the Campaign Setup
Navigate to the "Review" section in Figures (left sidebar).
Click on "Create campaign" in the top-right corner of the Compensation Review page.
Defining Basic Campaign Parameters
Campaign Name
Enter a name for your campaign in the "Campaign name" field.
This name will be displayed on the list of campaigns and visible to all users involved.
Choose a clear, descriptive title that reflects the purpose or timing of the review.
Campaign Start Date
Set the start date using the date picker next to "Campaign start date".
This date determines when employees become reviewable in the system.
Campaign End Date
Choose an end date using the date picker next to "Campaign end date".
While this date doesn't restrict reviews, it's used to:
Trigger reminders to managers (on D-1, D-3, and every Monday of the campaign).
Provide a target completion date for the review process.
Even after setting an end date, admins can extend or reopen the campaign if needed.
Campaign Main Currency
Select the main currency from the dropdown menu labeled "Campaign main currency".
This currency is used to calculate the overall budget, especially important when employees are paid in different currencies.
