Can We Add a Notes or Diary Feature to Our Performance Management System?

Hello, I am looking out for a "Notes" functionality or a "Diary" functionality that can be incorporated into a performance management system. The Notes or Diary should have private or public access functionality. Can such components be incorporated into a PMS system? If so, which tools are available in the market?

In my training on Performance Management System, I handle the topic of how to maintain a performance diary.

Understanding Performance Diaries

The term "performance" is comprehensive, and all good and not-so-good acts of subordinates are to be recorded. Record keeping is necessary since appraisal is done twice or four times a year, and certain events may be erased from our memory with the passage of time. The records of routine activities are not to be recorded in the Performance Diary (PD). However, whenever a subordinate falls short of expectations or does something extraordinary, only those things are to be recorded. There is no need to maintain a separate diary for each individual; a single register should suffice for the purpose. The PD is company property and needs to be properly handed over during the separation of a HOD or manager.

For more information, you may organize my consulting on PMS. Not just PD, but you will get a well-researched policy on PMS as well.

Thanks,
