How do I configure job application filters on job application lists?

You can configure which job application filters are available on job application lists, including extensible flexfields (EFF).

  1. Configure extensible flexfields (EFF) context and segments for job application filters.
    1. Go to Setup and Maintenance > Tasks icon > Search > Manage Extensible Flexfields.
    2. Search for the name Person EIT Information.
    3. In the Search Results section, select the Person EIT Information row.
    4. In the Actions menu, select Edit.
    5. On the Edit Extensible Flexfield: Person EIT Information page, select Manage Contexts.
    6. On the Manage Contexts page, in the Search Results section, select the Create icon.
    7. On the Create Context page, create the context you need. Enter values for Display Name, Code, API Name, Behavior (single row or multiple rows).
    8. On the Context Usages tab, select the Create icon to define the usage of the context.
    9. Save your changes.
  2. Configure EFFs that need to be dynamically indexed in the job application index.
    1. Go to Setup and Maintenance > Tasks icon > Search > Manage Search Indexes.
    2. On the Manage Search Indexes page, search for the fa-hcm-jobapplication index.
    3. Click the Configure icon. The page displays all the filters but only EFFs can be configured on this page.
    4. The EFF segments that you created appear under extraInfoDataEff.
    5. For proper ingestion, always select these required fields for each flexfield.
      • EFFLineId
      • SubmissionId
      • PeiInformationCategory
    6. If you select a LOV, Checkbox, or Radio button segment:
      • Select the value and description if valueset isn't table based.
      • Select segment name if valueset is tablebased. Value and description aren't applicable for table based.
    7. Save your changes.
  3. Run the full ingestion. In Tools > Scheduled Processes, run the scheduled process ESS job to create index definition and perform initial ingest to OSCS. The Index Name to Reingest is fa-hcm-jobapplication.
    If you haven't enabled advanced filters in responsive UI, you need to enable the job application attachment indexing before running the initial ingestion of the search index. For details, see Enable Advanced Job Application Filters.
  4. Select which filters are displayed on the job applications list page. You need the HRC_MANAGE_SEARCH_VIEWS_PRIV privilege to access the Search Views page.

    4. Select Enabled to indicate which filters you want to display in the Filters panel.
    5. Select Show to indicate this is a default filter that will appear as a filter chip on the job application list page. Otherwise, the filter will appear in the Filters panel.
    6. For the EFF filters, select Dynamic facet for the filter type.
    7. Save your changes.
