Where to Find it:
Open the Donut Dashboard.
Go to Shoutouts → People in the left sidebar menu.
For Shoutouts Admins
Admins can use the People Page to manage recognition program activity and adjust allowances.
You’ll see:
Points Given and Received: Track how many points each person has shared and earned.
Redeemed Points: See when teammates use their points for rewards.
Allowance: Set how many points each person can give in a cycle.
Why Adjust Allowances?
Custom allowances let you fine-tune how recognition works in your team:
Managers and leaders: Give them higher allowances so they can recognize larger groups.
New hires: Start with fewer points and increase over time.
Special occasions: Temporarily boost allowances during milestones, launches, or company-wide events.
