Purpose

Like/Dislikes functionality allows to understand team member's impressions of the current project assignment. It also helps managers to understand the personal Likes/Dislikes for each team member. 

Who can see the widget and make changes: all managers with full access to the profile (see details here) and employees themselves (own profiles in 'ME' view).

Likes/Dislikes widget

The widget contains information about team member's Likes/Dislikes:

Open

It includes:

1. Likes (if specified)

2. Dislikes (if specified)

3. Date, when the Likes/Dislikes section was last updated

4. Full name of the person, who did the last update

In case the Likes/Dislikes have never been previously specified for the team member, widget is displayed in zero state:

Open

Currently it is possible to remove all Likes/Dislikes values from the section, in this case widget will be displayed in zero state, but will contain the information about the 'Updated Date' and 'Author':

The widget is clickable:

• clicking on the widget, which has data (has history of updates made), will open the Likes/Dislikes section in the second slide-out sidebar in the View mode

• clicking on the widget, which does not have data (does not have history of updates made), will open the Likes/Dislikes section in the second slide-out sidebar in the Edit mode

• clicking on the 'Add' button on the widget will open the Likes/Dislikes section in the second slide-out sidebar in the Edit mode
