Configure the Retrieve PII from Screening Provider Client Property

Important: You must authorize your background screening provider to release personally identifiable information (PII) to Dayforce. Enabling this client property without providing this authorization to your provider might cause issues or delays for your background screening requests.

The Retrieve PII from screening provider client property controls whether Dayforce retrieves and stores candidate date of birth and SSN information from your background screening provider. When this client property is enabled, the date of birth and SSN information provided by a candidate during their background screening is stored in Dayforce and is automatically populated in the Candidate Hire form if you choose to hire them.

To configure this client property:

  1. Go to Recruiting Setup > Client Properties.
  2. Select the Retrieve PII from screening provider client property.
  3. Select one of the following options below the property description:
    • Enable this feature: Allows Dayforce to retrieve and store date of birth and SSN information from your background screening provider.
    • Disable this feature: Prevents Dayforce from retrieving and storing date of birth and SSN information from your background screening provider. This option is selected by default.
  4. Click Save.
