Evidence portfolio

The evidence portfolio is a space on a user's profile which allows them to share content with their managers. If an item of content exists in the evidence portfolio, it is only visible to the reportee and their manager(s). 

Managers can access their reportee's evidence portfolio in order to:

  • View, download, and sign off files their reportee has uploaded to their evidence portfolio, such as PDFs, documents, presentations, spreadsheets, and images. Once a manager has signed off a file, their reportee might upload it to a community in Fuse so that other users can view and access it. 

  • View and sign off articles, questions, and links their reportee has posted to their evidence portfolio. 

  • Sign off a reportee's answers to comprehension questions.

Once an article, question, or link has been posted to the evidence portfolio, it cannot be moved out of the evidence portfolio and posted elsewhere in Fuse. In order to make it available to other users and communities in Fuse, the reportee must post a brand new copy to Fuse.
