  Activity

Definition

Process step in SAP E-Recruiting. Each activity belongs to an activity type. Activity types belong to various activity categories. Activity types within the same category all have special properties. Activities have a status. They can have the status Planned or Completed .

Use

You use activities within the framework of the Recruitment process and in Talent Relationship Management (TRM). Activities are individual process steps that are assigned to a Candidate , a Candidacy , or an Application .

Activities have a status and a due date. When you create a new activity for an E-Recruiting object, the activity has the status Planned . Once you have performed an activity manually, you must set the status of the activity to Completed . You can record a comment for an activity and supplement the activity with uploaded documents. If the system performs the activity automatically (for example, using a workflow), then the status of the activity is changed automatically.

You can define your own activity types in Customizing. For more information about this, see Implementation Guide (IMG) for SAP E-Recruiting under Applicant Tracking → Activities → Define Ac tivity Types .

Structure

Each activity is represented by the following tab pages:

  • Properties

  • Attachments

  • E-Mail Attachments

    For activities in the Simple Correspondence or Invitation category, you can upload attachments that are sent together with the letter template.
