FAQ: Reallocating Points Within a Budget

Once a budget is published, a Recognition Administrator can reallocate points from a user to the budget.

For example:

  • If an employee leaves the company and is a part of the recognition budget, the Recognition Administrator can reallocate points so that they can be used by other employees.
  • Unallocated points in a published budget can be allocated to any user, such as a new employee, or other users in the recognition budget.
  • When a budget is archived, unallocated points will be added back to the Master Balance. 

To reallocate points from a user, follow the steps below.

Note: To follow the steps in this article, you must be a Recognition Administrator.
