E-recruiting - Add manual entries in hitlist search

[dominique_rochat]

We have created a new posting channel in e-recruiting.

With this new posting channel, we would like to create entries in standard hitlist for employee and for candidates (As standard posting channel 1 and 2 do)

We tried copying the PUBLISH method of CL_HRRCF_PUBLISHER_INT and CL_HRRCF_PUBLISHER_EXT but it doesn't work.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Best regards,

Dominique

Hello Dominique,

did I get your requirement right that you try to join internal and external publication in a single posting channel? So one publication publishes for external and internal job search?

Unfortunately this will probably not work the way you tried. The standard publishers for internal and external publicatios check their channel hard coded. I assume you excluded these checks when copying the coding but these restrictions are made for a reason. First of all the tables for the standard publishing channels cannot handle more than one channel so your channel would block the standard channels, you could never again publish for external or internal only as it could mess up the tables. Furthermore while some e-recruiting applications do not check for the candidate type in the publication (e.g. apply on application group can be done in bsp for iternal candidates although not meat to) others will not. So you will probably run in troubles with such a channel now or later.

If you wat to reduce the work for publishing there are ways of course. You could create a channel triggerig a workflow copying the information to standard internal and external channel so you reduce the work for the recruiter. Or you develop your own publication maintenance. I once build a screen which allows the publication maintainence directly in the table instead of the detailed view. Together with some buttons for some standard presets (channels, standard laguage, standard durations) you can create publications with 2 clicks.

Kind regards

Roman
