Creation or Update of Candidate on Push
Whether we create or update a candidate will depend on whether we have an ATS ID for the contact in question.
If no ATS ID, then SuccessFactors will create a new Candidate . If there is an ATS ID, and it matches and existing ATS ID, then that contact will be updated.
If no ATS ID but there is a matching email address, then that contact will be updated.
Created Contacts
We are unable to create an ATS ID ourselves, so when we push a candidate to SuccessFactors, SuccessFactors will generate an ATS ID.
We can then receive that ATS ID via two ways:
immediately via a feedback in the UI from SuccessFactors
on the next Candidate Pull (whenever that is next scheduled).
Push Triggers
The current implementation of Candidate Push has only one way of triggering - via Recipes in Beamery CRM.
Users can create Recipes with specific parameters to determine when to Push a Candidate. Every time those parameters are met, then the PUSH will be triggered.
i.e. The following Recipe parameters:
- When a Contact is added to a Pool in Beamery
- “add to SuccessFactors”
This would result in contacts being PUSHED to SuccessFactors when/if a contact is added to a pool.
However, if nothing has changed to that Candidate record, but the Recipe parameters are met, then we will not trigger a PUSH.
A key difference here to our Workday integration, is that we do not PUSH updates to SuccessFactors. The Recipe has to be met for any changes to be pushed.
