Symptom
When forwarding a Candidate to the New Application status (Default status) of another Job Requisition, the status-triggered email is not sent to the Candidate and Recruiting Operators.
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
- Configure the status-triggered mail for New Application status (Default status) in Edit Applicant Status Configuration
- Forward a Candidate from a Job Requisition to another and select "New Application" status
- The status-triggered email is not sent to the Candidate and Recruiting Operators
Resolution
This is an expected behavior. In the following 2 scenarios, the status-triggered email of the New Application status (Default status) will not be sent:
- A Candidate is forwarded to the New Application status (Default status) status of another Job Requisition directly.
- On the same Job Requisition, a non-applicant Candidate is moved from the Forwarded status to the New Application status (Default status) directly.
Note: If after adding the candidate to the job requisition this application is moved to another in-progress status the application status email will trigger as configured. The email is not sent only for the default status.
NOTE: SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting is no longer accepting enhancement requests; future recruiting development investment is focused on SmartRecruiters. A separate KBA will be published once enhancement requests for SmartRecruiters are open. Please refer to KBA 3798700 - Enhancement Requests for Recruiting - Recruiting Management.
