Creating and deleting badges
Overview
Employee satisfaction is one of the most discussed topics among employers, and one of the main reasons for employee dissatisfaction is not being recognized for their efforts. However, a simple act of awarding badges can have a huge impact on increasing the visibility of a person's work and enabling them to gain more recognition across the company.
What are badges and how do they work?
Badges in Zoho Connect are used to recognize employees for their roles, skills, and achievements. Once created, the badges can be awarded to relevant people for their unique accomplishments and help reinforce a positive work culture. The badges awarded are visible in the user's profile, thus being a testament to their efforts and achievements.
Types of badges
Custom badges: Create unique badges with your custom images and titles to suit your organization's needs. Assign points a user gains for receiving the badge and restrict the number of badges a user can send or receive in a specific time frame.
System awarded badges: Work anniversary, milestone, and birthday badges are automatically awarded by the system based on the specific criteria set by the admin.
