Lattice Product Updates

We've introduced new Goals reporting functionality that allows you to see specific goal details and even take actions on goals. For example, you can now click into goal numbers to see a list of goals and even open a sidebar for each goal similar to the explore page directly from the Participation and Status reporting pages. This functionality creates new user, manager and department drill down pages which will be useful for viewing different groups of goals together. We've also included clickable donut charts and employee dropdowns to make it even easier to get more information from Goals reporting.

Now we've included the attribute Start Date as a field that can be used to filter and select specific employees when determining who should participate in the upcoming review cycle. This is only applicable to org chart reviews and is not yet available for project-based reviews and automated rules.

We are bringing the ADP HRIS integration to feature parity with our other HRIS integrations by allowing mutual ADP and Lattice clients to sync custom attributes from ADP to Lattice.

Employees often don’t know where to start when it comes to developmental goals. Coming in just a couple of days to Grow, employees and their managers can attach Action Items to a Growth Area, making it easier to achieve and track progress on development areas.

Lattice previously had two different classifications for scoring-type questions: rating questions that could be calibrated, and scored attributes that could be used for things like skills-based assessments. Now, we've combined all functionality into a single rating question type, calibrated rating questions, that allows all questions to be calibrated after reviews are submitted. This gives People Teams more flexibility to ensure that all scores are submitted fairly across their organization.

Our homepage now offers users an easy, one-click way to create a growth area in Grow, making it easy for you to keep your growth plan top-of-mind.

Previously, HR administrators couldn't begin the calibration process until all reviews were submitted by each participant in the cycle. We've now given admins the ability to begin calibration before the review cycle is closed, saving valuable time for the People team and managers who have finished their reviews early.

Often, it's important to include job level, location, and other custom attributes about individuals to help guide calibration conversations. Now, admins can add all of these kinds of custom attributes to the calibration table, giving People teams a more complete picture of individuals as they are evaluating scores.

During calibration sessions, it's important to bring many different stakeholders in the room including managers, department heads, and other leaders outside the People team. Now, those individuals can be given specific admin visibility permissions for calibration sessions, making calibration smoother for all participants in Lattice.

With this integration, we're bringing Lattice closer to where the work happens to accomplish goals. For go-to-market teams, Salesforce is often the central tool that tracks and reports on important revenue metrics. Now, by enabling this integration, Lattice Goals will update automatically when information in Salesforce changes, cutting down on duplicate work and ensuring Goals are always updated.

Objective and key result differentiation is a vast improvement for usability and downstream reporting for end-users and business leaders alike. With O&KR differentiation, you can create objectives and key results rather than simply generic “goals.”

Since we unveiled Lattice’s Elevated Design in the spring, we continue to fine-tune the experience based on the helpful feedback we’re hearing from customers. With this update, we’ve revamped the People Navigation to make it easier to see all your 1:1 relationships alongside your personal profile.

In Lattice Engagement, admins can now toggle on/off comment and filter visibility for individuals with custom views for surveys and Pulse. With these toggles, Lattice admins can decide to let those individuals see comments and replies or change filters to the saved view.

Now live for all Lattice customers, streamline your goal-tracking workflows with our direct integration with the leading product management tool, Jira! With this integration, connect your Lattice goals to Jira so that when your team shares updates in Jira, goals in Lattice are automatically updated at the same time.

With Lattice Updates, managers can make comments on their direct reports’ progress to keep the conversation going outside of 1:1 meetings. Now, Lattice will automatically save comments in a draft state in Updates before managers submit them.

If your team is switching from one HRIS provider to another, we’ve just made it even easier to swap integrations in Lattice. As you’re disconnecting from your HRIS integration to enable another, you can now tell Lattice to remove external IDs associated with your employees so they can be re-synced with your new system.

Employees can now workshop their growth area in Grow before publishing it for their manager to see. Drafts are auto-saved as employees fill out the growth areas in Grow and before they are published, draft growth areas are only viewable by the person who created them. Draft growth areas are not visible in other parts of the product, such as in growth area reporting.

But that's not all! We have a second addition to review cycle analytics – weighted scores. Now, those with access to review cycle analytics can also view weighted scores in the bar chart, 9-box, and heatmap views.

After wrapping up an Engagement survey, it's important to get the right data into the hands of people managers throughout your organization. Now, when you’re sharing survey results with Lattice's pre-built role-based views – manager, manager-of-managers, and department head – you now have the flexibility to turn off comment visibility for the group of views and/or turn off additional filtering capabilities.

Building tracks from scratch can be difficult, but with track templates, we're giving Grow admins a head-start. Our library of track templates cover a wide range of common job functions developed by the People teams at Lattice, our customers, and the broader Lattice community.

Previously, Lattice users were limited to simple plain text when sharing feedback. We have now enabled more formatting and organization options directly in the feedback text box. This update also includes formatting the style feedback in Lattice, emails, Slack, and Microsoft Teams.

Companies leveraging both Lattice Grow and Reviews can now add competency-type rating questions to review cycle analytics. This allows admins, managers, and executives to include competencies alongside other rating questions, making review cycles a more complete view of employee performance.

Lattice HR and IT Admins can now manage their SCIM integration from the Integrations page as well as generate the API Keys from its page without having to contact Lattice Customer Care. This makes it much easier and faster for customers to send data to our SCIM server with the right credentials (API keys). Currently, Okta, OneLogin and Sapling are the three external services that we support.

Additionally, admins can now choose whether or not comments are visible in custom views for surveys. This helps admins ensure that comments are only visible to the individuals on the team who should see them.
