Configure Descriptive Flexfields as Filters and Facets

You can also configure descriptive flexfields as filters and facets so users can use them to browse gigs in Opportunity Marketplace.

Before you start

  • To access the Search Views page, you must have the following privilege: HRC_MANAGE_SEARCH_VIEWS_PRIV.
  • To use advanced search filters on the Opportunity Marketplace Jobs page, you must have the following privilege HRC_ACCESS_HCM_COMMON_COMPONENTS_PRIV.

This feature provides another ways for gig creators to capture data and for gig applicants to search for gigs.

Here's what to do

  1. Create the flexfields you want to use.
  2. Run the ingestion job called “ESS Job to create index definition and perform initial ingest to OSCS”. This ensures that all jobs and gigs that already exist in the application are fully indexed for search. Specify “fa-hcmrequisition” in the Index Name to Reingest field.
  3. Navigate to My Client Groups > Quick Actions > View More > Search Views.
  4. Select Opportunity Marketplace Gigs View.
  5. Click the Filters tab, and scroll down if needed to see the flexfields.
  6. Indicate whether you want to display them as filters or facets (or both).
  7. Click Save and Close.

    The following validation types are supported for the gig descriptive flexfields:

    • Gig Create/Edit and Details page: Format only, Independent and Table
    • Gig Filters and Facets: Independent and Table
    • Gig VBStudio Customization: Format Only, Independent, Table
