This chapter discusses your PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office processing environment and specifically how to:
Set up resource tables.
Set up order tables.
Set up general information tables.
Set up payroll tables.
Use the pages described in this section to set up the tables and processing rules that PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office uses to process information entered into the Employee and Applicant component pages.
To set up resource tables, use the following components:
Jobcodes (RS_CM_JOBCODE_TBL)
Lines of Business (LINE_OF_BUSINESS)
Frequencies (RS_CM_FREQNCY)
Tests (RS_CM_TEST_TBL)
Schools (RS_CM_SCHOOL_TBL)
Majors (RS_CM_MAJOR_TBL)
Degrees (RS_CM_DEGREE_TBL)
Shifts (SHIFT_CODE_TABLE)
Recruiting Source Categories (RECRUIT_SRC_TABLE)
Recruiting Sources (RECR_CATSRC_TABLE)
Action Reasons (ACTRSN_TBL_GBL)
Note. In the following list, the items marked with an asterisk (*) are, in an integrated environment where you have PeopleSoft Pay/Bill Management installed as well as PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office, configured in and owned by PeopleSoft HRMS. You set these up in HRMS, and the information from these tables is synchronized with the information in the Financials tables through application messaging. The items in the following list that are not marked with an asterisk are set up in and owned by PeopleSoft Financials, and they do not exist in HRMS.
This section discusses how to:
Enter job code definitions.
Note. If you have both PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office and PeopleSoft Pay/Bill Management installed, most of the job code setup is done in HRMS, but you set up margin percents in the Financials database.
Enter lines of business.
You can associate lines of business with applicants and employees. The system then uses the information as searching and matching criteria.
Define frequencies.
Note. If you have both PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office and PeopleSoft Pay/Bill Management installed, perform this setup in HRMS.
*Enter the name of tests.
*Enter the names of schools.
*Enter the names of majors.
*Enter the names of degrees.
Enter shift names.
Set up recruiting source categories.
Set up individual recruiting sources.
*Define reasons for your job actions.
When an employee job record changes, the action reason can further clarify the reason for the action taken. The values for the Action and Reason fields should be coordinated with your human resources group, and, if you are using PeopleSoft Pay/Bill Management, the values should be identical in both PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office and HR.
Determine the sequence in which pages appear in the Apply Online component.
PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office enables potential candidates to apply to your staffing organization online using a special web page that you set up. The Apply Online Setup table determines the sequence in which each page appears to users in the self-service application.
In addition, you must set up the following information:

To set up your order tables, use the Rate Profile (FO_RATE_PROFILE), User Order Type (FO_ORDER_TYPE), and Rate Element (FO_RATE_ELEMENT) components.
You can use the pages described in this section to set up the tables and processing rules that PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office references to process the information entered into the Order and Assignment component pages.
This section discusses how to:
Create rate profiles.
Create user-defined order types.
Create rate elements.
Set up order event groups.
The system uses order event groups to automatically schedule a set of agenda items, such as calls or visits, once a candidate accepts a temporary or career assignment. Each order event is associated with a setID.
Order events automatically generate agenda items based on the criteria that are set. The objective for multiple agenda items is to monitor the status of an order or how an employee is working out on a career or temporary order. The system schedules order events when an applicant or an employee accepts an offer.
Create career order fee schedules.
The fee schedules that you set up are used to calculate the placement fee fields on the in the Order component. Fee schedules enable you to project a maximum and minimum income amount based on the salary range you enter on the career order. Potential income scales are setID-driven.
Create fall off terms.
A fall off indicates that a candidate did not begin or complete a career placement that he or she accepted. When PeopleSoft Pay/Bill Management is installed in addition to PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office, a credit is automatically created for the customer in the PeopleSoft Billing application when a fall off occurs.

This section discusses how to:
Enter default values for pay grades and margin rates.
Enter job title codes.
Create or modify event types for the agenda, history, and event group functions.

Access the Public Email Template page (Set up Financials/Supply Chain, Product Related, Staffing, General, Public Email Template).
Users can define email templates using a token to reference data from any field in the Component Interface (CI) except as stated below. The system will replace the reference data with the embedded variables when users click the Apply button on the Compose Mail page.
The following two cases are the exceptions:
Email Candidate or Propose Candidate button (Search Results grid) on the PeopleMatch page
Since the data in the Search Results grid on the PeopleMatch page are not saved to the database, the CI cannot extract the data (Candidate Name, Candidate email address, and Candidate resume attach ID) that belong to this grid. To resolve this problem, the system passes the Candidate email address or Candidate Name and Candidate resume attach ID from the Order component to the Compose Mail component. The system administrator defines the email template using a token to reference data from any field in the CI and the variables %CandidateEmailAddr, %CandidateName, and %Attach. These variables reference data that are passed from the Order Component. The system will replace the reference data with the embedded variables when users click the Apply button on the Compose Mail page.
Email Candidate or Propose Candidate button (Search Results grid or Considering grid) on the PeopleSearch page.
The search record for this component is INSTALLATION. The INSTALLATION table does not have any keys. The CI requires using the key values in the search record to retrieve the data. To resolve this problem, the system will pass the Candidate email address or Candidate Name and Candidate resume attach ID from the PeopleSearch component to the Compose Mail component. The system administrator defines the Email Template using the variables %CandidateEmailAddr, %CandidateName, and %Attach. These variables reference data that are passed from the PeopleSearch component. The system will replace the reference data with the embedded variables when users click the Apply button on the Compose Mail page.
The system allows for the creation of public and private templates.

Use the pages described in this section to set up the tables and processing rules that PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office will use to process information entered into the pages that make up the Applicant, Employee, and Assignment components.
This section discusses how to:
Create or modify your payroll company.
You must define at least one company. If your PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office application integrates with PeopleSoft HRMS, each employee must be associated with a company to pass payroll and human resource information to PeopleSoft Pay/Bill Management. In integrated environments, companies should be defined in HRMS and synchronized with Financials through application messaging. Work with your human resources group to establish appropriate company values. The company value is global, not setID-driven.
Note. If you have PeopleSoft Payroll for North America in addition to PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office, you only configure the tax tables in HRMS.
Set up your company's benefit programs.
You must define at least one benefit program in PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office. Every employee must be associated with a benefit program in PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office to pass payroll and benefits information in PeopleSoft Pay/Bill Management. In integrated environments, benefit programs should be defined in HRMS and are synchronized with Financials through application messages.
Create payroll processing groups.
You must define at least one pay group in PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office. Paygroups are set up by company, and are not driven by setID. To enter a pay group, you must first create a company for payroll. In integrated environments, pay groups should be defined in HRMS and synchronized with Financials via application messaging.
Define payroll tax locations.
You must define at least one tax location code in PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office. The values you specify are the individual taxing locations for payroll processing; payroll uses these codes. The tax location code value is global, not driven by setID. In integrated environments, tax location codes should be defined in HRMS and synchronized with Financials through application messaging.
Set up the state tax properties.
The information that appears in PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office is for reference purposes only. You should maintain the information in the application that you use for back-office transactions.
Set up for local tax properties.
Set up local withholding tax methods and rates.
Set up a locality's tax reporting requirements.
Set up a company's workers' compensation rules.
Associate a workers' compensation code with a state.
Establish rates for each of your workers' compensation codes.
Associate workers' compensation codes with job codes.
Note. If you are integrating with PeopleSoft Pay/Bill Management, these tables are set up in PeopleSoft HRMS and are sent back to Financials through application messaging to be used when hiring employees and filling orders. These pages should not be accessible to users within PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office.

Resume parsing refers to stripping a resume of its formatting, resulting in basic and consistent data on an applicant's work history, skill sets, education, and so on. Once the data is parsed, it can be loaded into the database and into the appropriate fields for processing and searching.
There are two types of data mapping, dynamic and static. Dynamic data mapping is used when the XREF tables can change (add/update/delete) from time to time. Static data mapping is used when the codes used by the system are not changed a lot from time to time but still have different values used by candidates, such as gender. Static data mapping is covered in another PeopleBook.
See Maps.
