A Closer Look at the Employee Recognition System
Birthday/Anniversary Recognition from EntraID
Integration with Azure Active Directory (EntraID): By harnessing the power of EntraID user profiles, this feature ensures that employees’ birthdays and anniversaries are automatically recognized and displayed on SharePoint pages. This integration not only streamlines the recognition process but also personalizes the employee experience, making each member feel valued on their special day.

Customizable Celebration Templates
- Self-Service Sign-Up and Customization: To personalize how these milestones are celebrated, the system enables the configuration of Self-Service Sign-up. This allows employees to update their profiles with custom properties, further tailoring the recognition experience to the unique culture of the organization.
- Dynamic Display on SharePoint Pages: The system showcases these milestones on designated SharePoint pages, making it easy for the entire organization to partake in the celebrations. Whether it’s a heartfelt birthday wish or a congratulatory message for a work anniversary, this feature ensures that no special occasion goes unnoticed.
List - Driven Recognition Features
- Custom Defined Lists and JSON Templates: For organizations that prefer a more customized approach, the system offers the ability to use custom-defined lists combined with JSON to create bespoke display templates. This flexibility ensures that the recognition system can be tailored to meet the specific needs and branding of the organization.
- Filtered Views and Custom Imagery: To further enhance the user experience, the system includes options for creating filtered views that showcase specific categories of events, such as birthdays or work anniversaries. Additionally, custom images can be utilized to visually denote the type of event, adding a unique and memorable touch to each celebration.
