GFoundry backoffice: the Create a new Feedback Scope window with title, context, settings, Groups Segmentation and permissions


​

  • To create a scope, select New Scope. The window is called Create a new Feedback Scope.

  • To change a scope, use Quick Edit in the row actions menu, or open the scope and select Edit on the Scope Details panel. The window is called Feedback Scope Details.

If your platform has more than one language, the title and description have one tab per language.

Title and description

  • Scope Title: the name users see when they choose a scope. It is required in the default language.

  • Scope Description: explains the purpose of the scope and the kind of feedback it collects. It is optional.

Scope context

Use Choose a context for this scope to define what the feedback is about.

  • General Feedback: feedback not linked to OKRs. This is the default.

  • Objectives Feedback: when giving or asking for feedback, the user must select an objective.

  • Key Results Feedback: the user must select a key result.

  • Initiatives Feedback: the user must select an initiative.

If you only see General Feedback, feedback on OKRs is not active on your platform. Contact GFoundry if you need it.

General settings

  • Private Feedback Answers: responses are confidential and are not used to calculate public metrics.

  • Read-Only Mode: no new feedback can be submitted in this scope. Previously submitted feedback, both received and given, stays visible.

Groups Segmentation

Select one or more groups in Select Group to control who takes part in the scope.

  • With no group selected, all users can give and receive feedback in the scope.

  • With groups selected, only users in those groups can ask or give feedback for the scope.

If you see the option By default, all users can receive feedback for this scope. Enable this option to limit feedback recipients to members of the selected groups., turn it on to also limit who can receive feedback to the selected groups.

Feedback permissions

Depending on your platform, the permission settings appear in one of two ways.

If you see the checkbox Team Managers or Self-Feedback Only, turning it on limits the scope to team managers giving feedback to the people they manage, and to self-feedback.

If you see Feedback Permissions after selecting groups, choose one option:

  • Only users in selected groups can ask or give feedback for this Scope.: no extra restriction beyond the groups.

  • Team Managers Only: only team managers can give feedback using this scope, to the users they manage, even if the managers are not in the selected groups.

  • Self-Feedback Only: users can only give feedback about themselves.

  • Team Managers or Self-Feedback Only: team managers can give feedback to the users they manage, and users can give self-feedback.

If you see neither, these restrictions are not available on your platform.

Status

The Enabled toggle is on by default. When it is off, the window shows This Scope is disabled. and users cannot give feedback in this scope.

Saving

Select Create for a new scope or Save for an existing one. Reset restores the values the window opened with. After you create a scope, the platform opens its Feedback Scope Details page, where you add the questions.
