     2. **Employees Performance Dashboard:** Navigate to performance, select the relevant cycle and select 360 Assessments from the left sidebar. Invite requests will be listed under the Peer Assessment section to decline or accept and make an assessment.

**Note:** Depending on your organization's configuration, Supervisors may see the the names of user's that completed 360 assessments for their direct reports.

Assessor names are **not** displayed in the final appraisal sent to the receiving party when 360 comments are included in the appraisal.

**NOTE: **When you provide an assessment for your Supervisor, your Supervisor does NOT receive those comments directly. Your Supervisor's Manager will see the comments, determine whether to exclude the comment in the Supervisor's appraisal, and take those comments into consideration when writing your Supervisor's appraisal.  

### Accept or Decline 360 Assessment Invitations

![360AsessmentForm](https://help.inspiresoftware.com/hs-fs/hubfs/360AsessmentForm.png?width=650&height=303&name=360AsessmentForm.png)  
Select **Save Progress** at any point to save your current assessment progress.
