Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management

Reproducing the Issue

Recruiting user:

  1. Go to Recruiting > Candidates
  2. Click on Add Candidate > Add a Single Candidate
  3. Setting candidate privacy is not available

Agency user:

  1. Go to Job Listings tab
  2. Click on three dots icon
  3. Choose Submit New Candidate
  4. Setting candidate privacy is not available

Resolution

To allow Recruiting users and Agency users to select a candidate's privacy preference when manually creating a candidate profile, enable the following settings in Provisioning:

Provisioning → Managing Recruiting → Edit Candidate Privacy Options

  • For Recruiting users:

    • Allow internal users with appropriate add candidate permissions to set external candidate visibility upon manually adding a candidate

  • For Agency users:

    • Allow agency users with appropriate add candidate permissions to set external candidate visibility upon manually adding a candidate

As these are Provisioning settings, they must be enabled by your implementation partner or SAP Professional Services. Please refer to KBA 2261006 - PartnerEdge: Engaging PS or Partners for Implementations, Change Requests, New Program Development, Process Change & XML Configuration for guidance.

Once enabled, selecting candidate privacy is now possible:

  • Recruiting user:


  • Agency user:
