Links in User-defined Forms

Links can be added to user-defined forms.

Those three methods are available:

  • A hard-coded link can be added to a text field to direct candidates/new hires to resources, training, videos, Web sites, or anything that the Onboarding (Transitions) administrator can plan in advance to help the assignee.

  • A dynamic link can be added to a user-defined field. For example, if an organization requires that candidates/new hires be directed to different web destinations, then it may be appropriate to design a process that gathers the right URL from one assignee and then displays it back to the new hire assignee. To achieve that, the Onboarding (Transitions) administrator would define a UDF and then use it in a form that will be assigned for example to each recruiter or other participant. When adding the UDF to a form, the Onboarding (Transitions) administrator would display the field as a URL in a read-only format. Later, at runtime for each process, the assignee will type in the right value. Then, each new hire assignee will see this as a link in their form and each new hire could potentially see a different link than each other new hire.

  • A dynamic link can be added in a standard field. This is done when an organization wants to use the ELearningURL field to link an Onboarding (Transitions) process to a learning program in Oracle Oracle Taleo Learn. Other standard fields are not typically configured to include a dynamic link.
