Give team leads a clear decision on recognition points
Use the program's configured threshold to identify recognition requests needing a lead's decision, then record approval or decline within the selected points policy.
Recognize a peer → Approve the points within the policy (when triggered) → Choose a reward against an authorized balance (when triggered) → Fulfil the claim once and confirm receipt (when triggered)
Roles, playbooks and a practical launch plan for your team.

Your questions
Prepare the method for your team
What stays with the recorded response?
The response for this occurrence retains approved / declined and points posted to the balance. It belongs to the work being reviewed, rather than replacing a different occurrence's record.
Which materials do we need to bring?
Bring recognition form. We use those choices to prepare the working context, then check that each task opens the material it needs.
How do the conditional steps become part of the method?
The conditional route is used when the reward profile variant is selected and the recognition carries points above the auto-approve threshold. Select the variant or respond to the recorded condition before treating that step as required.
What is the outcome for the wider workflow?
Recognition posted per the program's visibility. In the reward profile — points approved or declined; a claim fulfilled once with receipt, or declined with the balance shown.
