Completing the Initial Setup of the Recruiting System

Enabling Career Site Builder and Configuring the Data Center Information

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to enable Career Site Builder.

Recruiting Command Center

Before working within Career Site Builder (CSB), first, an integration must be created between the SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting system (which hosts the recruiting Applicant Tracking System) with Recruiting Command Center (which hosts the career site). Command Center is a backend application used to manage Career Site Builder tenants, just like Provisioning is the backend application for all SAP SuccessFactors applications. All Command Center configurations must be done by a consultant (or SAP) as customers do not have access to Command Center.

Before configuring the integration between SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting and Command Center, it is recommended that you familiarize yourself with accessing Command Center, its pages, and functions.

Command Center URLs

Command Center has two environments: Stage/Preview and Production. While Stage/Preview is used for building a career site before it goes live, Production hosts the live career site environment.

Within the Command Center URL, the environment as well as the Data Center can be identified.

Use the following format to log in, where <Data Center> is the Data Center number:

  • Stage/Preview – https://bizx<Data Center>.stage.jobs2web.com/commandcenter
    • Data Center 12 stage example: https://bizx12.stage.jobs2web.com/commandcenter
    • Rackspace stage: https://bizx.stage.jobs2web.com/commandcenter
  • Production – https://bizx<Data Center>.jobs2web.com/commandcenter
    • Data Center 12 production example: https://bizx12.jobs2web.com/commandcenter

Login Credentials

Logins are tied to SAP user credentials (I-, D-, or S-User ID), and are not Command Center-specific.

Command Center Site List Page

After logging in to the Site List page, you can filter on a number of fields to locate your customer’s site. Quick links are provided for Career Site Builder, the Career Site, and Recruiting Advanced Analytics.

Filter on a number of fields to locate your customer’s site on the Site List page.

Command Center Site Details Page

The following are enabled on the Site Details page:

  • Status of the career site
  • Career Site Builder
  • Use of multiple ATS
  • Folder Name (this field is auto populated by the system and should not be changed)

On the right side of the screen, a section for Additional Options is available to access logs and to inactivate all jobs on the career site.

Inactivate All Jobs performs a "hard reset". Use this after you add or change job field mapping, or a field on the job requisition template. Afterwards, restore all jobs with a job sync.

On the Site Details page, under Additional Options, access logs or inactivate all jobs on the career site.

Command Center Feeds Management

Within the main dropdown menu at the top of Command Center, you can switch to the Feeds Management page. This is where you can create and generate XML feeds (standard or custom) based on the customer’s job distribution requirements.

On the Feeds Management page, create and generate XML feeds.

Enable Career Site Builder in Provisioning

  3. Select the following: Enable Job Marketing, Enable Career Site Builder, and Enable Candidate Account Simplification.

Summary

  • Before using Career Site Builder (CSB), an integration must be set up between SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting (ATS) and Recruiting Command Center (which hosts/manages the career site tenant).
  • Command Center is a backend tool (similar to Provisioning) and is typically accessible/configurable only by consultants or SAP, not customers. Command Center has two environments: Stage/Preview (for building/testing before go-live) and Production (live career site). The URL indicates the environment and data center.
  • After logging in (using SAP user credentials), you can find the customer site via the Site List filters; Site Details shows key settings (site status, CSB, multiple ATS, folder name) and provides options like logs and Inactivate All Jobs.
  • Inactivate All Jobs is a "hard reset" used after changes to job field mapping or requisition template fields; afterward, jobs must be restored via a job sync. The Feeds Management page is used to create/generate XML feeds for job distribution.
