2596116 - Candidate Status Mail Delay quartz job stopped running - Recruiting Management

Symptom

Clients' instances may experience issues where candidates will not receive disqualifying emails (but only when these emails are set to be sent with a delay in Admin Center > Manage Recruiting Settings > Return Email Address Information).

Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Have a delay set to disqualifying emails sent to candidates (Admin Center > Manage Recruiting Settings > Return Email Address Information);
  2. Either automatically or manually, move a candidate to a disqualifying status (e.g.: "Requisition Closed", "Not Qualified", "Unsuccessful");
  3. The email will not be sent to the candidate after the specified number of hours. This can also be chacked in the applicant's correspondent section.

Cause

There is a chance the delayed emails are no longer being sent because the Candidate Status Mail Delay quartz job stopped running. This can be checked in Provisioning > Monitor Jobs > Candidate Status Mail Delay.
