Configure USAM Profession Groups Search

Profession Groups is an optional feature involving significant setup. Talk to your Account Manager to see if this feature suits your business needs.
If Profession Groups are enabled by TK then they can be used to search Candidates
searches. By default this logic is disabled.
Enablement
To enable the logic:
- Navigate to Setup > Custom metadata types > Search & Match UI Configuration Custom Metadata Type > Manage Records.
- Click Edit.
- Click the checkbox Enable Search by Group of Professions.
- Click Save.
To use the feature, Group should be added to the TR1__Type__c picklist field on the TR1__Master_Skill__c object.
- If it doesn't exist in the org, it can be added manually.
Groups Import
Groups are limited to those configured by TK and will be imported to the Org.
- Manual creation of custom Groups is not supported.
- The group is assigned to the Candidate
by TK.
Below is an example for Candidates with the Job_title Skill of "Software Tester". These are then associated with the "IT Testers" group.

<ItemGroup key="skills_manual_entry">
<Item index="0">
<Field key="skills_manual_entry">
<Value>Y</Value>
</Field>
</Item>
</ItemGroup>
