Position Details Page

To access the Position Details page, click the ID of a position in the Position List.

The Position Details page shows you all the details / fields for the selected Position. You can also access the Position Report from here.

Overview

The Overview contains information such as the VMS Provider, Req and ATS IDs, and the Parsed and Req status:

  • Parsed Status: Verbatim text status of the job/position/req/order from the VMS.
  • Req Status: Normalized status from the VMS based on industry knowledge during implementation.

VMS Sync

This section contains system specific data fields. None of these are from the VMS.

The Sync Status or Sync Lifecycle status represents where the position is in the VMS to Sync to ATS lifecycle.

Position Delivery Stages

Ignore Field

If Ignore = True: VMS Sync never pulls data from the VMS for this position and doesn't create work objects for this position in our database. This field is set by default to True for all existing positions in a VMS when setting up a credential in VMS Sync. This prevents possible duplicates in your ATS from hand-entered Reqs. This is referred to as System level ignore.

In the VMS position lifecycle, VMS Sync doesn't generate work for this type of position, i.e. VMS Sync doesn't process any updates for it. VMS Sync sets the status of the position to complete.

Rule Ignored Status

If Status = ruleignored: Based on customer requested rules, VMS Sync will stop these positions from being uploaded to the ATS using the rules system. This is referred to as Customer setting ignore.

VMS Sync generates work for this type of position and will get updates from the VMS when triggered by reqlist, mail parsed, etc.
