Higher Level Review (HLR)
Note: Do not use the Back Button on the Browser, use only the buttons within the PAA. Note: The system allows two options to accomplish HLR: 1) Electronically through the PAA, or 2) the rating official may record HLR through an alternative method. This guidance addresses the steps a higher level review official must take when the appraisal is sent for review through the PAA. If the appraisal is sent for review through the PAA, you will get a notification about it. 1. Log into DPCDS https://cpps.donhr.navy.mil:8007/OA_HTML/AppsLocalLogin.jsp 2.
