Cause

This is an expected behavior.

Resolution

  • The 'Accept Match' button will be not be available if the user is still active in the system; only Terminated employees can be used for the 'Accept Match' button.
  • The 'Accept Match' button will also be missing if the user did not have a valid termination record in jobInfo. The inactive user should be terminated correctly for the 'Accept Match' button to appear during rehiring process.
  • If the 'Accept Match' button is missing even for correctly terminated users, then the following permissions under category "Manage Hires" are not granted to the user and need to be granted to use the feature.
