Symptom
Despite configuring reverse-scale="true" in the Job Requisition template, the reverse rating still does not work and candidates are sorted from highest to lowest score.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management
Reproducing the Issue
- Configuring reverse-scale="true" in the Job Requisition template
- Schedule interviews for several candidates
- Rate these candidates in interview central
- In the "View Candidate Ratings" page, candidates are still sorted from highest to lowest score.
Cause
The switch "Rating Scale Order: lower values are considered MORE favorable (e.g. 1 is better than 5) (Used for Dashboards & Reports only)" is not enabled.
Resolution
In order to have the reverse-scale effective, not only the reverse-scale option needs to be enabled in the Job Requisition template, but also in Provisioning, under Company Settings, the switch named "Rating Scale Order: lower values are considered MORE favorable (e.g. 1 is better than 5) (Used for Dashboards & Reports only)" needs to be enabled. Only then the reverse-scale option will start working in the "View Candidate Ratings" page as per expectation.
Configuration details as below for the Job Requisition template XML:
<assessment-scale reverse-scale="true">
<scale-id><![CDATA[IntScale]]></scale-id>
</assessment-scale>
In Provisioning > Company Setting, enable the switch "Rating Scale Order: lower values are considered MORE favorable (e.g. 1 is better than 5) (Used for Dashboards & Reports only)"
