Manage users and permissions

The Users tab in the Compensation Review configuration allows you to manage all users involved in your compensation review process. Here, you can set up accounts, control access to analytics, and manage budget visibility for each reviewer.

Account management

  • View the list of all reviewers involved in your compensation review

  • Check the account status of each reviewer

  • Invite reviewers who don't yet have a Figures account

Ensure all reviewers have active Figures accounts before the review starts.


Analytics access

  • Grant or restrict access to aggregated review data

  • Enables reviewers to see metrics like promotion rates, average increases by gender, country, or business unit

  • Typically given to top management for oversight and ensuring fairness


Budget access

  • Control whether reviewers can see their allocated budget

  • Useful for managing small teams where budget visibility might be too constraining


Exceptional bonus permission

If you've included exceptional bonuses in your compensation items, you can grant reviewers the ability to allocate these bonuses


Set up communications

The communication setup in Figures allows you to automate key notifications and reminders for your compensation review campaign. This feature ensures that all reviewers are informed and engaged throughout the process.

Campaign launch notification

Configure an automatic email to be sent when your campaign starts:

  • Check the Send email box to enable this feature.

  • Use the WYSIWYG editor to customize the email content.

  • The email will be sent on the campaign start date you've set.

Reviewer reminders

Set up automatic reminder emails for reviewers with pending actions:

  • Check the Enable emails box to activate reminders.

  • Reminders are sent every Monday at 10:00 (UTC).

  • Additional reminders are sent 1 and 3 business days before the campaign end date.

These reminders help keep the review process on track and ensure timely completion.

Manual communication

Personal emails from someone within the company are often more effective than automated messages. That's why Figures provides you with a complete list of reviewer email addresses.

You'll find this list at the bottom of the Communication page. It allows you to send messages directly to your reviewers from your own company email system.

Use this option to:

  • Send personalized reminders

  • Communicate company-specific information

  • Ensure better engagement of reviewers in the process
