          WDC Editions and Permissions

          WDC Editions and Permissions

          Skills and Thanks functionality are freely available to Sales users. The permissions and preferences necessary for different tasks are broken up by feature area.

          Required Editions

          Available in: Salesforce Classic

          WDC is available as an add-on license for Professional Edition, Enterprise Edition, Unlimited Edition, or Developer Edition, and is included in Performance Edition.

          Important
          Important Starting in Spring ’22, WDC isn’t available to new Salesforce customers. For existing customers, WDC features and records from Badges, Skills, and Thanks aren’t affected and will remain available in the application beyond Spring ’22. WDC Goals, Coaching, Feedback, Performance, and Rewards features won’t appear in the application anymore, and records created previously will no longer be accessible.
