In particular, under Start of the navigation path Talent Review Meeting Next navigation step Make Additional Settings for Talent Review Meetings End of the navigation path , you need to specifically activate the following functions to be able to use them:

Parameter	Description	More Information

In Customizing for Talent Management and Talent Development under Basic Settings PDF-Based Documents in Talent Management , you have copied the standard application form HRTMC_CALIBRATION_GRID to the productive client and assigned it to the parameter CALIBRATION_GRID. Alternatively, you can create a customer application form and assign it to the parameter CALIBRATION_GRID.
Note
You need the application form so that the talent management specialists can insert the calibration grid into the handout, or when holding talent review meetings, display a print preview of the calibration grid and then print it.

If no application form is assigned to the parameter CALIBRATION_GRID, the system hides the following selection options in the dialog box for creating handouts:
- Insert calibration grid
- Insert talent list
- Insert talent profile
The handout then automatically contains the talent list and the talent profiles of all talents that are assigned to the selected agenda topics. The talent management specialist can choose between the short profile and the detailed talent profile.

To be able to display the calibration grid, the newest version of the Adobe Flash Player must be installed on your PC.
To be able to display a preview of the handout and a print preview of the calibration grid or follow-up list, Adobe Reader must be installed on your PC.
For talents to be displayed in the calibration grid, performance values and potential values must exist for these talents. Depending on the combination of performance values and potential values, the talents are classified in the corresponding box of the calibration grid.
For more information, see Performance Values and Potential Values in Talent Management.

Note
You can use the parameter SUPPORT_UNAPPRAISED_TALENTS (see above) to specify that talents without a valid performance assessment and/or potential assessment can also be discussed in talent review meetings.
