    Incent on Learning Curve

Any activities that are receiving a learning curve adjustment will not be factored into the performance that triggers incentive.

When the box is selected, the 'Performance Level' option is enabled.

    Performance Level

    If the 'Incent on Learning Curve' box is selected, select whether the adjusted performance (for activities on learning curves) or the baseline (non-adjusted) performance will be used to trigger incentive.
