Approvals in iRecruitment
Whenever a manager or recruiter makes a change to a vacancy, or creates a new
vacancy, iRecruitment checks to see if an approval is required for the action that has
been taken.
To meet your business needs, you may add additional rules, conditions, or attributes
within the delivered iRecruitment Vacancy Approval transaction type, or you can

Description:
The URL for connecting to the iRecruitment system varies according to the user group. For example, the internal site visitor URL is
different from the external site visitor URL.
For external site visitors, you access the IrcVisitor.jsp. The location of this jsp will depend on your applications server, however, it is of
the form:
http://hostname:port/OA_HTML/IrcVisitor.jsp
Typically employees will access iRecruitment using their portal homepage, however if you can enable internal site visitors, to access the
IrcEmpVisitor.jsp. The location of this jsp also depends on your applications server, however, it is of the form:
http://finde00.NASiya-algerie.com:8015/IrcEmpVisitor.jsp
You should replace the http://hostname:port/OA_HTML part of the URL with the URL of the html directory on your
applications server.
Note: If you have installed other languages, you activate iRecruitment in the required language by adding the following suffix to the
log-in URLs:
?L=<language code>
For example, http://hostname:port/OA_HTML/IrcVisitor.jsp?L=F would activate the French language version. The language codes
are available in the table FND_INSTALLED_LANGUAGES.
