SAP SuccessFactors has delivered enhancements and updates across the SAP SuccessFactors® HCM Suite as part of their Q1 2018 product release. Here are a few key updates you should consider for SuccessFactors Recruiting Management (RCM) and Recruiting Marketing (RMK).
Configuration Type: Admin Opt-in
Prerequisite: RBP is a must to use Business Rules. In provisioning, the following must be enabled: Enable Generic Objects and Enable Recruiting Business Rules. In Admin Center, the permission can be found in Administrator Permissions, enable Manage MDF Recruiting Objects and the Edit permission for Recruiting Rules Assignment Configuration
Why is it important? Clients previously needed to reach out to a partner to be able to assign rules to the templates. Now they can do it themselves via the Admin Center.
Change Audit Logging of User Data
Automated process that will track the changes to data (candidate profile, application profile, offer approval, offer letter & interview) in RCM and store the data for reporting. The system will store the before and after values, the user who made the change and timestamps for each change via different channels (like UI, Imports, oData, SFAPI, Rest APIs).
Configuration Type: Universal
Prerequisite: None, any instance after B1802 will automatically have Data Base tables. However, to report on this, permissions will need to be granted in RBP.
Why is it important? Clients who have privacy requirements (to provide reports on the changes on/by Data Subjects) will be able to store data in the audit tables.
Audit Logging of Read of Sensitive User Data
Automated process that will track the read to sensitive data (candidate profile, application profile) in RCM and store the data for reporting. The system will store the read field names, the user who has read and timestamps for each read along with the channel.
Configuration Type: Universal
Prerequisite: Each instance after B1802 will automatically have Data Base tables included with their instance storing the read of data in the Audit table. Customers will have to mark fields as sensitive=true in the candidate and application templates. Read Access Logging will need to be enabled in RBP. To report on this, report permissions will also need to be turned on in RBP.
Why is it important? Clients who have privacy requirements (to provide reports on the sensitive data read on/by Data Subjects) will be able to store data in the audit tables.
Data Purge
Candidate, Application and corresponding audit data would be anonymized in the system based on retention time configured in new DRTM purge by the clients.
Configuration Type: Universal
Prerequisite: Fields on the candidate and application templates will have to be marked anonymize=true. Clients will also have to do retention time configuration in various MDF/generic objects in RBP. Clients will also have to upgrade to the new RCM DRTM solution manually from the Upgrade Center.
Why is it important? Clients who have privacy requirements to not keep data of the candidates beyond a point of time would be able to configure it accordingly.
Consent
Configuration Type: Universal
Prerequisite: DPCS 2.0 must be configured
Why is it important?: Clients who have privacy requirements that require the disclosure of how the client manages the users privacy can use this feature to provide their policy and track the users acceptance with the support of versioning of the consent statement.
Configuration Type: Admin Opt-in
Prerequisite: Career Site Builder
Why is it important? Headers can be completely customized by a non-technical user. All components can be moved and branded to fit the client requirements. Nearly all of the client branding requirements can be met with the new CSB header Editor.
