      Create a Non-Monetary Program

      This article will guide you on how to create non-monetary program through JobPts.

      In this article:

      A non-monetary award is an option that gives employees and managers an opportunity to send a non-monetary recognition to peers. This article is divided into two sections. The first helps you create a non-monetary program and the second guides you to edit an ongoing non-monetary program.

      Log in to JobPts -> Admin Center -> Programs -> Manage Peer To Peer Programs -> Create New Program

      To start creating a new program, select the Create New Program button.

      *Note: If the Admin role of the user is set to 'Org Unit' admin, the Manage Recognition Programs Page will display only the Programs for the Org units the admin is assigned to.

      A new screen will open where several fields should be filled to create the Non-Monetary Program.
