Defining bonus objective goals for direct reports

Managers can create bonus objective goals only for bonus objective pay components that have been defined as manager-initiated, or both employee and manager-initiated. You can either create the bonus objectives directly in Compensation or attach goals that have already been created in Goal Management.

The difference between these two methods is that goals created in Goal Management can provide more flexibility for bonus objectives. For example, they may allow you to enter external results, or to use action plans. For more information about defining goals in Goal Management, see the Goal Management User Guide.
