Feedback requests in Teamflect include an expiration time that determines how long providers have to respond. By default, this timeframe helps keep feedback cycles timely and relevant, but you might want to adjust it to fit your team’s workflow.
This article explains whether individuals can modify the default expiration on their own requests, how expiration settings are applied, and what options administrators can configure at the system level. Understanding these settings ensures your feedback requests stay open for the right amount of time and align with your review or development cadence.
Step 1: Access the Admin Center
Go to https://admin.teamflect.com and navigate to the Modules section using the left navigation bar. Then click on the Feedback tab.
Step 2: Set the default expiration time
Find the setting labeled Set default feedback request expiration time.
You can choose a value between 1 and 8 weeks
The default is 2 weeks
Note: Teamflect does not support feedback requests without expiration.
Step 3: Enable or disable user overrides
You’ll also see the setting:
Allow users to override the default feedback request due dates
