Every 360° feedback run goes through four statuses: Draft → Scheduled → Active → Completed. The further the run progresses, the less you can change, which protects data integrity for reviewers who are already submitting feedback. This article covers the Schedule tab and what stays editable in each status.
  • Only runs in Draft can be scheduled.
  • Once a run is Scheduled or Active it enters restricted editing mode — only a few, low-risk settings remain editable.
  • A 360° dashboard is created automatically when a run becomes active.

​
The four statuses

The current status is always shown next to the run title and on the overview list.

​
Scheduling a run

  1. Work through the wizard tabs until every required setting is filled in.
  2. Open the Schedule tab. You’ll see a Run Summary with the number
of recipients, total reviewers, and the anonymity thresholds.
  1. Set Activation date and time — the moment invitations are sent and
the run becomes Active.
  1. Set Deactivation date and time — when the run closes and becomes
Completed. This must be after the activation date.
  1. Click Save & Schedule.
A confirmation dialog tells you the activation date, lets you know that a 360° dashboard has been created automatically, and takes you back to the overview.

​
You can only schedule a run if…

  • … it has at least one feedback recipient. If the list is empty, the Schedule tab shows a blocking message.
  • … it has a questionnaire. The Schedule tab warns you if no questions have been added yet.
  • … every scale question has a dimension assigned. Quantitative questions without a dimension prevent scheduling — the tab points you back to the Questions tab to fix this.

​
Restricted editing mode

Once a run is scheduled or active, most tabs become read-only. A yellow banner at the top of the page tells you you’re in restricted editing mode. What remains editable:
  • End date. You can extend or shorten the deactivation date — for example, to give reviewers a few more days to submit.
  • Run name, welcome message, goodbye message. On the Details tab these remain editable.
All other settings — survey type, questions, recipients, reviewers, anonymity, permissions, notifications — are locked at that point. If you need to change them, you must contact Honestly support, or cancel the run and start a new one.

​
After the run completes

When the deactivation date is reached:
  • The run status changes to Completed.
  • Reviewers can no longer submit feedback.
  • The 360° dashboard remains available; results are shown according to the anonymity thresholds you configured.

​
Tracking progress during a run

On the run overview you can see, per recipient, how many reviewers have responded — for example 4 / 7 Rater. This lets you follow participation per recipient without waiting for the run to end, and gives you a basis for sending targeted reminders if needed.
