From Exact Extract:

To ensure a performance form has a rating of record in the Summary section with manual rating

enabled, the best practice is to define the Manual Overall Rating as a required field for the role

providing the final rating (e.g., EM - Employee’s Manager).

Extract from SAP SuccessFactors Documentation:

SAP SuccessFactors Performance Management Guide (Q3 2025):

"To ensure a rating of record in the Summary section with manual rating enabled, define the Manual

Overall Rating field as required for the role providing the final rating, such as the Employee’s

Manager (EM), to enforce rating completion."

Explanation of Options:

A . Incorrect: "Allow Override Unrated" does not ensure a rating of record; it allows bypassing

unrated sections.

B . Incorrect: Requiring the Section Comments field does not ensure a rating is provided.

C . Correct: Requiring the Manual Overall Rating field ensures a rating of record.

D . Incorrect: Enforce Maximum Overall Score (EMOS) sets score limits, not a requirement for rating

completion.
