Process documentationProcess: Reopen a Closed Job Requisition Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

The process for reopening a closed job requisition is roughly as follows:

Process

  1. Optional: For a position whose vacancy has been closed or delimited accidentally, the HR Administrator creates a new vacancy or extends the validity period of the delimited vacancy. Based on this vacancy, the SAP ERP system creates a record of the infotype SFSF Job Requisition (1107).

  2. The HR Administrator uses the Reopen Job Requisition pushbutton to reopen the closed job requisition for a position. The SAP ERP system changes the job requisition status displayed on the SFSF Job Requisition tab from Closed to To Be Reopened.

  3. Depending on whether a job requisition has already been created for the record of the infotype SFSF Job Requisition (1107) created in step 1, the further process is as follows:

    • Job requisition in SuccessFactors BizX is already created

      1. The Web service for transferring job requisition data is run directly and transfers the information that the job requisition needs to be closed again to SuccessFactors BizX.

      2. SuccessFactors BizX changes the state of the job requisition (field jobReqStatus) to Closed and the status (field status) to SAPClosed, and informs the SAP ERP system of the closed job requisition.

      3. The SAP ERP system deletes the relevant record of the infotype SFSF Job Requisition (1107) again.

    • Job requisition in SuccessFactors BizX is not yet created

      In this case, the process continues “normally”, meaning with step 4.

  4. The report Create and Update Job Requisitions in SuccessFactors (RH_SFI_TRIGGER_JOB_REQUISITION) transfers the information to SuccessFactors BizX that the old job requisition needs to be reopened.

  5. SuccessFactors BizX changes the state of the job requisition (field jobReqStatus) to Approved or Pre-Approved and the status (field status) to SAPReopened, and informs the SAP ERP system of the reopened job requisition.

    Note Note

    The state that the job requisition had before it was closed determines whether the state is changed to Pre-Approved or Approved.

    End of the note.

  6. The SAP ERP system changes the job requisition status displayed on the SFSF Job Requisition tab from To Be Reopened to Created.
