Create a Work Anniversary Award

This article is for the Super Admin.

You can automatically celebrate work anniversaries by creating a Work Anniversary Award under Manage > Milestones. When a user celebrates a work anniversary, the award appears on the social feed, which allows other users to add on to the milestone if they want to (if they have giving points available).

Note: in order to receive an anniversary award, users must record their join date ahead of time. Work anniversary rewards cannot be awarded retroactively.

From the Manage > Milestones page and on the right side of your screen, click 'Set work anniversary award', then complete the following:

Name - give your award a name (the name of the award only appears in the reports and transaction histories)
Message - add a celebratory message that will apply to all users' work anniversaries
Badge - select the badge the user will earn
Points - add the number of points the user will receive (optional)

That's it!
