# How do I add a comment during a Comp Cycle?

Collaborating during your compensation cycle is a breeze. 🍃

When viewing your employee list, a small speech bubble icon will be visible to the right of each employee's name. Click on this icon for the employee you would like to communicate about and a comment drawer will appear.

![CommentDrawer](https://helpcenter.pequity.com/hs-fs/hubfs/CommentDrawer.gif?width=670&height=486&name=CommentDrawer.gif)

To mention other Pequity users in the comment, start with an **@** symbol to pull up a list of relevant available users.

⛳️ Because compensation cycle data is sensitive and restricted, only users with access to that specific employee will be able to be mentioned. Typically this includes all Pequity company admins & any other planners or planning partners associated with that employee (ie. planning partners for your group or planners/planning partners planning for the same employee in a different wave or group).

😅 Didn't mean to hit save? You can delete your comment after it has been saved by selecting the three dots next to the comment. Then select **delete**.

When a user is **@mentioned** in a comment, they will receive an email notification with the comment details and a link to view the comment directly in Pequity.

To easily filter your employee list to just those with comments, you can toggle **Show only with comments** on to the right of the Search bar.

### Notes:

- To export comments in a cycle, follow the steps outlined in this [article](https://helpcenter.pequity.com/help/how-to-export-data-from-a-comp-cycle?hsLang=en).
- Comments are made and assigned to employees regardless of the active planning group or wave.
- Comments display the name of the user who made them and the timestamp, making it easier to view them in chronological order.
- Ensure you have the correct permissions for your role if you're unable to view or add comments.
