Environment

Reproducing the Issue

When you have a Job Requisition XML template with a feature permission block with multiple statuses as follows :

<feature-permission type="offerApproval">
<description><![CDATA[Test the feature]]></description>
<role-name><![CDATA[R]]></role-name>
<role-name><![CDATA[T]]></role-name>
<role-name><![CDATA[G]]></role-name>
<status><![CDATA[Offer]]></status>
<status><![CDATA[Ready to Hire]]></status>
<status><![CDATA[Hired]]></status>
</feature-permission>

But when you upload the XML you will face a very similar error as mentioned below :

Cause

We have received confirmation form the Product Management team also on this, that in the feature permission block only one status is allowed and multiple statuses cannot be added.

Resolution

For the above example mentioned, if you would like to give the feature permission for three statuses like 'Offer, 'Ready to Hire' and 'Hired' you will have to create three different blocks. For example :

Similarly you will have to create another two permission blocks with status as Ready to Hire and Hired.
