Candidate assessment shortlist for manager in e-recruitment

Hi all,
Can anyone explain how a manager can view candidates against requisitions that they have raise. I am using service hrrcf_a_requi_monitor and can see all requisitions that have been raised by a manager. On the publications tab at the bottom of the screen, I can see all associated publications for each requisition. However, on the candidate assessment tab no candidates are appearing, despite candidates being assigned to the requisitions within e-recruitment. The manager has roles SAP_RCF_MANAGER and SAP_RCF_DECISION_MAKER. I have a number of questions.
1) Should the manager be able to see all candidates as soon as a candidacy exists for the requisition?
2) Does a specific activity - I have read that questionnaires are used - need to be created by the recruiter in order for a manager to see a candidate? If so, which one?
3) Within service hrrcf_a_requi_monitor  in MSS, there is a category of 'shortlisted'. What determines a candidate being placed in this 'shortlisted' category? There is no corresponding cateogry within e-recruitment.
There is also a service hrrcf_a_req_assess for candidate assessment. Is this required as part of the process and is so, should it be before or after the requisition monitor? Within hrrcf_a_req_assess no requisitions are showing, despite them being raised by the manager.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim

Hi Jim,
candidate assessment through managers is generally based on questionaire activities.
If you want a manager to give feedback on a special candidate you have to create a questionaire activity on the candidacy, with an appropriate questionaire of course.
There are applications for MSS and for the manager BSP frontend (if you do not use MSS) which show the manager a list of requisitions with assigned candidates his has to fill. To have this working the Manager has to be member of the support team which should be no problem if the manager creates the requisition himself.

  • MSS Candidate Assessment

    Question to those who have E-Recruiting and are using the MSS Candidate Assessment functionality. 
    We are running E-Recruiting 6.0.  We just upgraded from ECC 5.0/ERP 2004 to ECC 6.0/ERP 2005.  However we are only on Enhancment Package 2.
    The old version of the MSS Candidate Assessment had two candidate views:   the first has all top candidates and the second has only those who have an incomplete assessment.  The new version MSS Candidate Assessment only shows that have an incomplete assessment.  Once the assessment is completed, the candidate no longer appears in the list. 
    The problem we have with this is that the resume can no longer be viewed because it isn't available on the candidate status overview.  I've tried to change the config to have all candidates show, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do this.
    Has anyone run into this and how have you resolved it?  Does Enhancement Package 3 resolve this?
    Any assistance would be appreciated!

    Hi Krishore,
    Thanks for reply,
    The version of BP_ERP5ESS is 1.0 SP8 and The version of SAP_ESS is  600 SP8.
    do need to add extra patch for this.
    please help me on this issue.

  • Multiple libraries, Pbook/Pmac, advice for management & updating please.

    Hi Everyone,
    I travel frequently, and am looking for suggestions to keep all my iPhoto libraries up to date. I currently have a g5, Powerbook, and Mini.
    I just upgraded to iPhoto 6 and I have several thousand photos on my Dual g5. I just came back with 1000 more from my diving trip. The problem is, they are on my Powerbook, and taking up alot of space on the relatively small hard drive. I managed to work through the rough upgrade from 5 to 6, and now I need some more help...
    1) What is your advice for managing multiple libraries of photos.
    2) What is the best way to transfer the iphoto pics (and movies) to my desktop, which of course has the larger storage capacity, after travelling...
    Thanks,

    Jason:
    There are several different approaches to what you want to do. Let me just throw out a couple that I'm familiar with.
    To get the new photos from your PB to your G5 and maintain any keywords, and other organization effort you put into them, you'll need the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager. It will allow you to merge libraries or copy between libraries and maintain the metadata, etc. That's the only way currently available to move photos from one library to another and keep the roll, keywords, comments, etc. with those photos. You can connect the two Macs with one in the Target Mode, probably your PB, and then run iPLM to move the photos to the G5 library.
    Now there is a way to have a library on your PB that reflects the one on your G5 but is only a fraction of the size. That's to have an alias based library on your PB that uses the Originals folder as its source of source files. (My 25,600 files, 27G, are represented by an iPhoto Library folder of only 1.75G). When the PB is not connected with the G5, say with a LAN, it will have limited capabilities which are in part: you'll only be able to view the thumbnail files, be able to add comments, create, delete or move albums around, add keywords (but with some hassle-but it can be done). You can't do anything that requires moving thumbnails around, work with books, slideshows or calendars. Once the two computers are networked together again the library will act as normal.
    Now while on the road you can have a "normal" library to import new full sized files, keyword them, add comments, etc. and then transfer to the G5 library. Once in the G5 library they will be represented in a roll(s) and corresponding folder in the Originals folder. You then fire up the "alias" library, and import those new folders in the G5 Originals folder.
    It may be a lot of work but it may be one way of doing it.
    I've not done any of the "sharing" with iPhoto so don't know if that's another possible candidate for transferring.
    P.S. FWIW I've created this workflow for converting from a conventional library to an alias based one.

  • Tutorial for managing bookmarks in iPhone environment?

    I hate asking newbie questions but here goes. Searched for this but found threads regarding desktop environment.
    When I open Safari on my iPhone 3CS, I see bookmarks imported from my pc when I synched. Don't need all those so deleted most. Here's the problem: if I type in a new address in Safari addres field at top, and go to that page, then do Add Bookmark, it doesn't show up the next time I open Safari and look at the bookmarks. If I start to re-type it in the address field, the full link and title appear below, so I know it's storing it somewhere.
    Can someone just point me toward an online tutorial for manageing bookmarks within the iPhone environment not the desktop?
    Thanks!

    it's one of the dangers to BYOD.....The best way to manage this is education(unless you are ready for MDM).
    Granted that can be a bigger pain in the buttocks than working around it.
    What I tell people(having had this happen to me a couple of times) is when it's time to change your password
    1.) Make sure you have all your devices with you
    2.) disable the wireless on everything
    3.) change password via your laptop
    4.) enable one device, and go change the password there < rinse repeat for subsequent devices.
    Now, when the company I was working for moved to a MDM, the issue went away on my phone and tablet, as the mail settings were controlled by the MDM, so when i changed my password, it pushed to my other devices.

  • Open module for managing property file and environment variables

    Looking for an open module for managing property files and environment variables (like CLASSPATH) set in a shell script. For handeling properties (preserving comments, supporting includes, appending new entries, and more) I have looked at SuperProperties from openadaptor but find certain functionality lacking. As for interfacing with common shell scripts/files containing setting for CLASSPATH, JAVA_HOME, other system/application variables another type of object editor is needed. Maybe JFIG?
    Any ideas are greatly welcomed.

    You seem wright, you hit a brick wall here with Air to find the location
    of the command console on windows...
    So in fact I never build an exe tool, but this little problem was a nice
    case to test it and I tried it.:
    I downloaded monodevelop
    -GTK# for .NET 2.12.10*
    -MonoDevelop 2.4.2*
       from http://monodevelop.com/Download
    created a console project and had an exe in 5 minutes !
    You can download the findconsole tool and the projectfiles here:

  • Best practice for managing Apple ID's in an enterprise enviroment.

    We have just started to incorporate iPads into our Corporate enviroment.  We have had them in use for the last couple of months and to be fair they have worked well but i guess now is the time to try and workout some of the issues we are experiencing with them, the re-occuring issues that just seem to keep haunting us.
    As part of the deployment we gave those with current apple id's the option of using their own, particularly those Execs who already had iPads and iPhones.  We are currently using active sync with our exchange server for access to email.
    How do other people manage Apple ID's?
    How do other people handle the password change scenario.. we have had users on holiday where their passwords have expired and they have been unable to access the email...also the issue of you reset your password on the network but you still need to re-authenticate it on the iPad...does anyone have a decent app that can get us round this?
    what issues have others found?

  • Solution Manager - EarlyWatch Alert shows red flag for managed system.

    Hi Guys,
    I tried to fix EarlyWatch alert report for Managed systems of QA and Dev which showed red flag on SolMan in DSWP. While trying to generate BACK RFC Destination to SolMan for QA and Dev, it messed up the EarlyWatch alert reports of Prod which was successfully working upto this point. And now the red flag appears for Prod system on SolMan in DSWP instead of two bottle sign.
    As for why Dev and QA did not work, I found out it was NONE internal RFC popped whenever I tried to choose the RFC to connect to SolMan while Prod which was working fine before always showed BACK rfc. That's why I tried to fix BACK rfc for Dev and QA.
    Please help me to fix these EWA problems.

  • Managed Attachments - creating a customCO for 'Managed Attachments' and opening a new browser/window  as ActionEvent through processFormRequest()

    Hi All,
    I am working on 'Managed Attachments' integration of Oracle E-Business Suite with Oracle WebCenter Content and I am very new to EBS.
    As per the customer requirement, we needed to enable the Managed Attachments on an SIT page (Employee Self Service --> Special Information-> and click on 'Add' for any of the 'Special Information' section) and the values they fill on these pages need to be passed to webcenter content.  As you know these segment data will not be inserted into the database until the user clicks on 'Submit' button from the review page,
    But the customer wants to save it on the 'Special Information' add page itself.
    Managed Attachments is an out of the box feature offered by Oracle WebCenter Content to replace FND Attachments functionality. Instead of storing the attachments in EBS, it will store to WebCenter Content.
    My requirements are as follows
    1) Enable the managed attachments on he special information 'add' page (e.g Company Property, Disabilities etc),- I am able to do this
    2) The data user fills in these fields , when user clicks on 'Managed Attachments' button , these values should be passed to the URL for managed attachments(which is already set on the button through processRequest() method when the page gets loaded) and thus pass to webcenter content
    With these requirements, the challenges i am facing are
    1) Since the user clicks on 'Managed Attachments' before even he/she clicks on 'Apply' button, how do I capture these values? can pageContext.getParameter('id') can get these?
    (i have already tried to do this in processFormRequest() method and i found that it is working for LOV fields but not for text fields)
    2) if i can get the values in processFormRequest(), how can i open a browser/window for the new URL()
    e.g, i wanted to write something like this and the finalURL is what i wanted to open in a new browser or window as the actionEvent
        public void processFormRequest(OAPageContext pageContext,   OAWebBean webBean) {
    super.processFormRequest(pageContext, webBean);
       String param1 = pageContext.getParameter(“Param1”);
    String param2 = pageContext.getParameter(“param2”);
    String redirectURL = “http://rstnssiovm0072.us.oracle.com:8000/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?page=/oracle/apps/ak/ucm/axf/webui/RedirectToAxfPG&bypassPageCounterIncr=Y&retainAM=Y”;
    String paramURL = “&Parameter1=”+ param1+”&Parameter2=”+ param2;
    String finalURL = redirectURL+paramURL;
    Code part to open the url in a new browser/window
    If anybody can help me with these part, it will be a great help
    thanks a lot in advance
    Regards

    Hi Poornima ,
    Has your prob resolved ? Have you made Managed attachment working via standard adapter as per UCM Admin guide ?
    Configuring the Managed Attachments Solution - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
    1. You have first store in some VO if you want to pass this metadata to UCM page , other wise it will not work .Take temp table /VO to store first then same can passed to UCM page as input parameters
    2.What needs to be passed , please refer webcenter guide with key examples given
    Once it is configured properly automatically params will be associated with URL which actually will open UCM page with metadata ( params) being passed.
    Thanks,
    Ashish

    Hi,
    We identified an issue in AsyncOS 6.7.6-068 for Management that under certain circumstances can cause loss of historical reporting data when reporting groups are configured. To ensure a high quality release, further testing on our side is required.
    6.7.6-068 is no longer available for upgrade to your M-Series appliances.
    If you already upgraded to 6.7.6-068 we strongly recommend to disable group based reporting to avoid being affected.
    We expect to release a new improved build of 6.7.6 shortly and apologize for any inconvenience or confusion this might have caused.
    If you are required to upgrade to 6.7.6 before a new build is available, please contact Cisco IronPort Customer Support.
    I'll let you know once the new build is available...

  • Leave Request Not Appearing in UWL for Manager

    Hi,
    We have a strange issue where leave requests are not appearing in the UWL for a specific manager.  We have checked with other managers and the leaves are appearing in their UWLs and they are able to process their employee's leaves without any issue.
    For the manager not seeing the leave in their UWL, I have confirmed the following:
    1) Proper manager defaults in 'approver' field in ESS and employee is able to send leave request without issue
    2) Manager receives email to process employees leave request after RPTARQEMAIL program runs
    3) Leave is reaching the manager's business workplace in R/3 so this verifies workflow is working and the leave is being directed to proper manager for approval
    4) Proper roles have been assigned to manager and verified in PRD
    *Also, the leaves were appearing in the manager's UWL at one point but no longer appearing.  This makes it more confusing!
    Does anyone have any suggestions/ideas as to what may have happened?
    Any feedback would be greatly appreicated!
    Regards,
    Brian

    Hi:
    We transported our ESS/MSS changes from the DEV client to STG client.  I have verifiied the follwoing settings in STG:
    1) SWU3 - all connections are green.
    2) Workflow template and tasks - all are assigned as general task with agents assigned
    3) Configuration in SAP contains the correct WF template for leave processing
    4) UWL has been regenerated
    I am able to submit a leave request under ESS user.  I check workflow and it shows leave has been submitted and waiting for Manager to approve step. 
    However, under MSS user the leave request is not showing up in the UWL.  All configuration on backend and the items noted above have been verified. 
    Is there configuration or a connection on the portal side that I need to check? Or anywhere else?  Any input would be greatly appreciated.
    Regards,

  • GPS Metadata for Managed Images Bug

    Alright this is really dumb. Aperture strips the GPS metadata for managed images on a version export, but does not for referenced files.
    It just took me 4 hours to figure that out, ug. Metadata is sacred! Always preserve it.

    My Aperture library uses managed masters.
    I too discovered that if I performed *version exports* of geotagged masters the exported images did not retain the GPS data. The problem was the same regardless of whether the masters were .jpgs or RAW files. (Geotagging was performed with Maperture and Maperture Pro; the bug symptoms are the same regardless of which tool was used.)
    Additionally, I discovered that if I performed *master exports*, then not only were the geotags retained in the exported files, but that +reimporting those same exports resulted in new masters whose versions would subsequently retain their geotags on version export+.
    synonym wrote:
    If you Relocate Masters... BEFORE you add GPS metadata using Maperture you don't lose any IPTC metadata. If you then Consolidate Masters... you can then apply GPS metadata to these images within your Aperture library and you will not lose IPTC or the GPS data on exporting the versions.
    If I'm reading this correctly it sounds like you can "scrub" your library of the problem by relocating masters and then consolidating them again, and that subsequently applied geotags (and by inference IPTC metadata) will be retained on new version exports. Did I get that right?
    However if you already have loads of images in your Aperture library that you have added GPS data to with Maperture and you also have loads of IPTC metadata on them and adjustments what do you do?
    I did a backup of the library at this point to a vault. I then restored the vault and GPS data and IPTC metadata was all retained and was also all retained on exporting versions!
    And if I'm reading the last sentence of your post correctly, it seems like the consistent behavior between our two situations is that if *images are brought into the library with geotags already in them* - in your case by library restoration and in my case by re-importation of previously geotagged masters - *then the geotags will be retained on subsequent master and version exports*.
    Is that a valid conclusion to draw? If so, it sounds like I could workaround the problem of geotags missing from my version exports by either A) relocating and then consolidating my masters, or B) by the three-step process of:
    1) geotagging my images,
    2) updating the vault, and then
    3) restoring my library from the vault.

  • JSP tags for managing MBeans??

    Hi,
    I'm trying to build a GUI for managing a custom MBean. The MBean implementation is a wrapper for a singleton class (specifically, a Configuration class for a web app). I've tried using WebJMX, but the problem there is that it relies heavily on MX4J, and has not kept up with JMX advances in the last two years (MX4J is a bit ahead of weblogic 8.1).
    Just as there is a set of console extension jsp tags, I suspect that a set of JSP tags exists for the developers of the Weblogic console to write their JSP pages to manage the weblogic MBeans. I coud just try to figure out the pattern of the INPUT and FORM tags in the html, but that leaves me with a possibly-inaccurate, version-dependent, non-dynamically-generated page to manage one MBean.
    Does such a set exist? Could someone point me to any information about how to use such a set of tags?
    I would like to be able to have the JSP I use for my console extension display an interface for modifying MBean configurable fields and executing MBean operations. What would the best way be to do this? I do not want to embed the Sun JMX RI in my web-app and launch a separate HtmlAdaptor listening on a different port. I would like the admin to the MBean be accessible through (and only through) the weblogic console.
    Thanks in advance for the help,

  • Paperq: a tool for managing a reading queue of academic literature

    paperq is a command-line tool for managing a reading queue of academic literature.   It's usage is simple: you add files to the queue and then you run it without arguments to open the next file in the queue. The queue part of the code itself is rather simple but paperq also offers some other nice features:
    Add files (-a option)
    Remove a file (-r option)
    Display info on a file. Given a BibTeX file,  print the bibliographic information, otherwise print the file location (-i option)
    List all files (or bibliographic information) in the queue (-l option)
    Create an archive (tar.gz) of the papers in the queue, prepending the file names with the queue position (-z option)
    Operate on any file in the queue, instead of the head, via the -n option
    Peek at a file (open it, but don't remove it from the queue) via the -p option
    Print a file (-t option)
    Configurable file-opening command (xdg-open %s, by default)
    Documentation is available in the README file or on the website (see below). A man page is also included.
    I've been using it myself now that I finally stopped using Mendeley. I find it to be quite handy, so I've packaged it up to be shared with others.

    Glad to hear it could be of use to you! Honestly, this also just started out as a quick script but little by little I started adding more handy features.
    As for other bibliographic formats, it could be possible. I'm mainly familiar with BibTeX, so I would need to see how the other formats look. 
    In all honesty, the bibliographic info printing could be greatly expanded: only journal articles are supported at the moment, and mathematical expressions in the titles aren't yet supported (i.e. greek characters).  It might be more efficient in the long run to write a dedicated biblio parsing program that loads some pre-written BibTeX-parsing library rather than all the crazy sed work that's going on in there right now. If that's the case, then it's just a  matter of loading some library for a different biblio file format in order to support it.
