Profile Options Controlling Requisition Behavior

When users create a job requisition based on a job or position, these profile options control a few behaviors.

  • PER_DEFAULT_GRADE_FROM_JOB_POSITION: The grade value is defaulted if requested with this profile option.

  • PER_ENFORCE_VALID_GRADES: If the profile option is set accordingly, you can only select grades which are valid for this job or position.

  • ORA_IRC_REQ_DEFAULT_SHORT_POSTING_DESC_FROM_PROFILE_DESC_ENABLED: The short description is defaulted from the Profile Description of the profile only if the profile option is set.

  • ORA_IRC_REQ_DEFAULT_RESP_QUAL_FROM_PROFILE_ENABLED: You can define if responsibilities and qualifications must be defaulted from the profile when creating a requisition using a job or position. This profile option is off by default.

  • ORA_POS_HIRING_STATUS_FILTER: If the profile option is set accordingly, the Show Only Approved Positions check box is displayed next to the selector. This option allows users to select a position to create a requisition. When this option is selected (it's selected by default), only positions with the Approved hiring status are available for selection. When the option isn't selected, all positions can be selected, regardless of their hiring status. If the user selects a position whose hiring status isn't Approved, a warning message is displayed to ensure this was done on purpose.

    If you don't want to give recruiters the ability to select positions whose hiring status isn't approved, this check box can be hidden using the Create Requisition action in HCM Experience Design Studio. Hiding this option is useful for companies with a policy of not creating a job requisition until a position is approved. On the other hand, showing this option is useful for companies who allow creating a job requisition in advance of when the position is approved, because the recruiting interview and selection process may take a little while as the position becomes approved. Remember that offers are stricter than requisitions: an offer's proposed start date must be on or after the time when its associated position's hiring status reaches the Approved state.
