Permissions to Create, View, and Edit Requisitions

Permissions granted to Recruiting Center users so they can create, edit and view requisitions.

To create requisitions in the Recruiting Center, users must have the following permissions.

User Type Permission Location
Create requisitions Configuration > [SmartOrg] Administration> User Types > Recruiting > Requisitions > General
View requisitions Configuration > [SmartOrg] Administration> User Types > Recruiting > Requisitions > General
Allow access to n requisitions

Note: For a requisition type currently active.

Configuration > [SmartOrg] Administration> User Types > Recruiting > Requisitions > Requisition Types

To view requisitions in the Recruiting Center, users must have the following permissions.

User Type Permission Description Location
View requisitions Note that even if users can view requisitions "without restriction", users will not be able to view requisitions belonging to requisition/staffing types that they do not have access to. Configuration > [SmartOrg] Administration > [Users] User Types > Recruiting > Requisitions

To edit requisitions in the Recruiting Center, users must have the following permissions.

User Type Permission Description Location
Edit requisitions This permission also allows users to enter comments on requisitions they are allowed to edit. Users can also cancel requisitions with this permission.

When users have the Create requisitions permission but not the Edit requisitions permission, they will be able to edit a requisition until it is saved. Once the requisition is saved, they cannot change any value.

Also, for the Recruiter and Recruiter Assistant fields contained in a requisition, only users that have the Edit requisitions permission will be displayed in the User Selector. Users with the Create requisitions permission will not be displayed.

Regardless of the security level for certain requisition fields while in edit mode, users with the Create requisitions permission are able to capture foundation data in the Create a Requisition tool. Fields in the tool are always editable regardless of their security level.

Configuration > [SmartOrg] Administration > [Users] User Types > Recruiting > Requisitions
Attention: The "Edit requisitions" user type permission has two constraints: These two constraints do not take effect in the user's current session; they will apply only at the user's next login. This is because user type permissions are verified at login to determine what a user can access and the system does not know of the change until the credentials are verified again. For example, a user has the "Edit requisitions - But not if requisitions have been approved" permission. If a requisition changes from Draft to Approved during the user's session, the user will still be able to edit the requisition or attach/remove files in the requisition until he/she logs out of the system. Likewise, if a requisition was in the approval cycle during the user's login and it then completes the approval cycle. If that user is not authorized to edit requisitions during the approval process, he/she may need to log out and back in again in order to regain the edit access to the requisition.
