E-Recruiting Request Questionnaire

We are exploring the Request Questionnarie functionlaity with SAP E-Recruiting.
We are currently on E-Recruiting 6 with Enhancement Pack 3 SP level 5 with Netweaver 2004s (7.0) (support pack stack 20).
There is an e-mail that goes out when a recruiter requests that a candidate complete the questionnaire. The first thing we noticed is that this e-mail had our backend server name (e.g., prdsapsv99.ornl.gov) in it instead of our web dispatcher name (e.g., recruiting.ornl.gov). Like the POSTING_APPLY application, this required we put information into table HTTPURLLOC. We did this for QA_EMAIL_E and QA_EMAIL_I. Then the e-mail with attached PDF had a link that correctly pointed the web dispatcher.
We have a problem with the PDF document displaying a URL over three lines but only underlining the first line. This was described in a different SDN forum [posting|Re: Displaying Hyperlink in Smartform;.
Everything works for internal candidates (i.e., employees). One thing we are currently working on is the logon for the external candidates. When they use the questionnaire link in the PDF, we get a short dump that says something about RABAX_STATE. We have modified the /sicf services for hrrcf_a_qa_email_ext and hrrcf_a_qa_email_int, but this is just to redirect the user to our custom logon screen.
Anyone else using the Request Questionnaire functionality in this way? Anyone who has encountered this error?
David

One other thing to note is that our external users are not dialog users. We have them set up as service accounts since they should never need to log into the GUI. But switching the user to a dialog user makes the error go away and the application work.
The short dump is too long to attached (exceeds maximum size for SDN posting), but here's the main information displayed on the screen:
Error when processing your request
What has happened?
The URL https://recruiting-dev.ornl.gov:/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/hrrcf_a_qa_email_ext/ was not called due to an error.

What can I do?
If the termination type was RABAX_STATE, then you can find more information on the cause of the termination in the system ERD in transaction ST22.
If the termination type was ABORT_MESSAGE_STATE, then you can find more information on the cause of the termination on the application server saperdci_ERD_00 in transaction SM21.
If the termination type was ERROR_MESSAGE_STATE, then you can search for more information in the trace file for the work process 0 in transaction ST11 on the application server saperdci_ERD_00 . In some situations, you may also need to analyze the trace files of other work processes.
If you do not yet have a user ID, contact your system administrator.

E-Recruiting- To send Questionnaire to a candidate

Hi
I want to send a questionnaire to the candidate along with a letter. I have created a questionnaire activity and assigned questionnaire to the activity. I have also created another activity by name request questionnaire and assigned a letter. The earlier Questionnaire activity is appeared as reference activity on this page. I have sent the document through e-mail option. My question is how a candidate will see this questionnaire and complete it.
Thanks in advance

Hi Robin,
when you send a letter to a candidate, that letter contains a link, Through that link, when candidate accesses, questionaire will open. and complete the questionnaire.
Hope this is the information, you would be expecting.

Service request related question

I wasn't sure where to put this - so I guessed here...I filled out the service form because my battery won't stay charged on my nano...I received the empty box, but I never got the email of instructions on what to do. I put my nano in the box and sealed it - and removed the top copy of the label, but there are 4 boxes at the bottom of the return label and i'm not sure if I'm supposed to check on or now. They are labeled: CIP - Unopened Box - Defective - Something Else I can't remember right now. Can someone help me please???

Hi Sunil,
You can already make surveys mandatory and get an error message if it is not filled from customizing.
Open the following customizing:
CRM > Transactions > Settings for Service Requests > Questionnaires > Define Determination for Surveys in Service Requests
In this customizing, have a new determination rule with the Item category as needed and check the Mandatory checkbox. You might need to scroll to see this checkbox. With this setting, you should get an error message if the questionnaire is not filled.

EEO Questionaire Information in eRecruiting

I am trying to find the responses to the EEO questionaires in eRecruiting. Some have answered this question by simply directingl me to HRP5141. This is not correct. The questionaire objects are stored her but the actual "responses" are what are of interst to any business. We need to compile a report on the EEO data itself. Does anyone know how to find out where these data reside?

Hi Victor,
Request Questionnaire and Request EEO Questionnaire are standard activity types, but if you dont want to create seperate activity types, you can create a questionnnaire and addign it to directly to the requisition or add it to the process template which will then be available for any applicant in the application wizard when trying to apply against the job posting.
Please refer to the below help link.

Oracle EBS / MS Outlook Integration Options for Workflow Approvals

My organization is using Oracle Applications 11.5.10.2 and is currently in the process of upgrading to R12.
I've recently been asked to investigate and provide options for stream-lining users' ability to respond to workflow notifications from within Oracle Applications, removing the need for users to have to log into Oracle or send an e-mail response to the workflow notification mailer.
Is anyone aware of any out-of-box mechanisms or 3rd party bolt-on solutions that would achieve this?
For example, rather than a receiving a workflow notification e-mail asking an approver to log into Oracle to approve a purchase order, time card, recruitment request, or expense report, my business users would like to be able to approve or reject the approval directly from within MS Outlook.
One option would be to utilize the inbound workflow e-mail processing (e.g. for the user to send a reply e-mail response back to workflow notification mailer), but I'd like to know if there are any other options - such as an add-in within MS Outlook that would prevent the business user from having to send an e-mail response message.
Greatly appreciate any ideas or suggestions.
~Jeremy

The note id's provided above are very helpful for understanding how to control the two out-of-box mechanisms for responding to approval notifications
Option 1: Users click on the "Please click here to respond" hyperlink in the e-mail, log into Oracle Apps, and respond to the notification
Option 2: Users click on the "Accept" or "Reject" hyperlinks provided in the workflow e-mail notification, which creates an response e-mail notification containing the notification_id and response (e.g. accept or reject). The response gets processed by the workflow notification mailer.
My organization currently uses both both options (option 1 for some approval workflows, option 2 for others), and I'm familiar with how to toggle a particular workflow approval notification between these two options.
However, my organization wishes to pursue another option that would involve creating a composite application or enterprise application mash-up, accessible within MS Outlook, that would allow an Oracle apps user to see his or her list of open notifications (within Outlook) and respond to the notifications from either Outlook or our corporate intranet web site. We recently implemented an Identity Access Management solution and have a good link established between each LAN (MS Exchange) user account and his or her Oracle Apps user account.
To my knowledge, there is not out-of-box way to do this and it would require implementing a third-party bolt-on if one exists that would meet this need. Maybe one option would be to create a simple ADF application that would find open notifications in Oracle for the current user and wrap the seeded API's used to respond to the notification.
Please let me know if anyone else has any feedback or prior experience addressing a similar business need.

E-recruitment: Assignment of Questions Questionnaires

Error: In the process of assining the questions to questionnaires, Use of existing Questions search produces the complete list of question on First hit, from next time onwards the search does not show the list of questions, instead only the number of questions in each category is displayed.
Version - E-rec 604 support pack 5. Webdynpro Interface, seperate front end and back end - candidate Scenerios #3 as per Note 1017866.
Request e-rec Pro's to post the solution, if they have faced this issue in there e-rec implementation exp.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
I have had this issue. This was a problem in the ALV component, therefore it was a basis issue.
I could not find the note for that, but I will take a look next week.
In general you should implement e-recruiting SP7 and therefore Basis SP7 as well. This will solve man issues, you will face during the implementation, if you have just SP5.

E-recruiting - ranking by questionnaire

Hi all,
How to implement the ranking by questionnaire - how to check it in assignments!
Thanks in advance

Hello Bharat,
candidacy ranking by questionaire is a function available in all currently maintained e-recruiting releases (300, 600, 603, 604). The only exception is 604 (e-recruiting 600 Enhancement Package 4) support package 3 or lower. Reason for that is easy. SAP just forgot to migrate the function when moving the recruiter interface from BSP to WebDynpro and now has to downport the implementation from EhP5 to EhP4 which is done with SP4. So far for the technical requirements.
For the pure doing in the system: When creating a questionaire there is a screen where you can a s s i g n points to certain answers of a question. In addition you can mark answers as required (not to mix up with question is required to be filled). Now you need the questionaires filled for some of the candidacies. This can either be done as questionaire in the application wizard, as questionaire request send to the applicant or simply by filling as recruiter / manager. If the questionaires are filled you can choose ranking by questionaires in the candidate selection or in the WebDynpro equivalent.
If chosen, you will see the counted points for the answers of each questionaire and a suitable / not suitable flag. The points are just summed up according to the answers. The candidacy is marked suitable if for all questions the required answer is given. Here you see one restriction of the concept, you can technically mark more than one answer of a question as required but if the candidate can only choose one answer none of the questionaires can be suitable. E.g. if you ask for a language only interesting for a special position so not part of the qualification catalog, you cannot mark "mother tounge" and "fluent" as required if both were ok. In this case you would use ranking by search query and search for the question in the questionaire with both answers.
Hope that helps, kind Regards

Recruiting problem with the candidate search by trex with questionnaires

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to search candidates using trex in recruiting by candidate_questionnaires but the trex does not show any result. How can I solve it?
When candidates register theirselves on internet, they complete questionnaires that I have added in the apllication wizard.
But the problem starts when I want to search candidates by the answers that they have complete in this questionnaire. So I select the criteria search candidate questionnaire, then I select the questionnaire and then the answer and I run the searh. I know that the results shown are always about others requisitions and not the one that I am doing the search. But in my case candidates are assigned in other requisition with the same process template so I do not know where is the problem, because other sort of search works fine. This is the only one that it does not work.
In addition, I have run the report RCF_CHECK_SEARCH_SETTINGS but the result is that all the parameters are fine except that I have not implement the badi HRAHAP00_FOLLOW_UP_SES. May I have to implement?
Moreover I have seen that when I select the answer to search, any operator (element of selection mask) is assigned but I have read that it is correct because I am using the search profile "int_cand" with the category "candidate_document" that it use in the mask search candidate_questionnaire.
In conclusion, I don't know how I can solve this problem with trex? Any idea?
Thanks in advance,
Juanjo Garcin.

I've already done it.
Do you think this will help?
I doubt that Apple will listen to us. Users with a problem that occurs quite a lot.

Cannot search for name when assign questionnaire in E-Recruitment

Hi,
I am currently using e-recruitment (version 603), we have a problem where when we try to assign a questionnaire to a person, we can't search this particular person. The name was not displayed on the searched result list. But when I checked using BP, HRP1000 and HRP5102 I can see the record of this person. Any ideas why this persons does not appears on the search result?

Nicole and Roman
Thanks for your feedback. Nicole, yes your are right I am referring to the processor, this person does have BUP003 role. Roman, I have also checked the infotype 5102, the field IS_INACTIVE is NOT set to 'X'.
For you information, what I found was this person have an empty Address under Address Overview when I run the BP transaction for his profile. Once the address field was filled with his address, we are now able to search for his name and assign him as the processor.
Your feedback have help me to solve this issues, once again thank you.

E-Recruiting Questionnaires integrated in Entry of External Applications

Hi,
is it possible to integrate Questionnaires in the function "Entry of External Applications"? I need the recruiter to be able to complete questionnaires for the candidate within entering external applications.
If I try to integrate Element 0012 "Application Wizard: Questionnaire" using container sequences I get an internal error. Is it necessary to create a custom BSP page for this purpose?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks and regards
Gabriel

Hello Gabriel,
integrating the questionaire function into the candidate profile maitenance you can enter from the Manual/Minimum data entry for external applications handed in by hardcover or email is not possible. Reason for that is the different object relation of the application wizard and the candidate profile container sequence items which is leading to the error you encountered when you tried to mix the containersequences.
Usually when implementing e-Recruiting and you decide to use the manual data entry function at all you use a different szenario. The system is designed that after entering the data you can switch to the candidate selection and add the application wizard questionare through creating an activity. If the candidate gave you an email address you easily send him the questionaire so he can fill it. If you have no email address you can send a letter with a printout of the questionaire which is entered by a recruiter/datatypist when returned or you just call the candidate an fill in his answers.
Í admit that this is a bit more time consuming than having the recruiter enter the information directly but as I have seen in most cases the recruiter does not get all of the information needed from the cv and stuff the applicant send in.
In an approach to give a full answer to your question I think you should also know that there is another organizational solution to this problem which is mostly on the process design side of the e-Recruiting implementation. Many companies just bypass this MDE questionaire topic by a strict restriction of hardcover applications. Often companies do not accept and enter these applications into the e-Recruiting system at all. They just print a letter from Word saying the applicant he shall use the online way. The Manual Data Entry is only for real Talents/Star-Applicants they need so urgently that they really cannot effort to loose them by forcing them to enter their data online. But if someone is so good, so special noone cares about the questionaire - just invite him to the interview and ask him.
To be honest I recommened this solution as it is the most efficiant way to deal with hardcover applicastions.
Best Rgds.
