When you create an offer for a candidate, you can route the offer for approval by
using the Submit Offer for Approval action. This action is used when at least one person
must approve an offer before extending it to the candidate.
-
Open a candidate submission.
-
Go to the Offers tab.
-
In the More Actions menu, select Submit Offer for
Approval.
-
Click Add Approvers to select users who will approve the
offer.
Based on your settings and configurations, the list of approvers may be
prepopulated and, in some cases, you might not be able to add or remove
approvers.
-
Define the order of approval by assigning a sequence number to each approver.
The approval path can be carried out in two ways:
-
Sequential: When the first approver receives an approval request, the
approver approves the offer. Once approved, the approval request goes to
the next approver, and so on.
-
Parallel: Multiple approvers receive an approval request and they can all
approve the offer at the same time. Approvers can approve the offer
without having to wait for the others.
-
Enter comments for the approvers.
-
Select the user to whom the offer must be sent for next steps once it's
approved.
-
Click Submit for Approval.
The system assigns the task to the first approver in the
sequence. The approver receives an Approve Offer task.
