Job Details Screen

The Job Details screen in the Add New Requisition wizard shows mostly non-editable job details that are automatically populated when you select a similar or vacating employee, a job assignment or a position. Although most of the fields are read-only, you can specify the following: 

  • Minimum and maximum hiring ranges.
  • Whether to use a base rate policy, if applicable.
  • The offer letter templates that must be used, if required.

The read-only fields inherit job data that is already configured in Dayforce. For example, pay grade data is only displayed if your organization uses pay grades; otherwise the field displays Not Specified.

Note: Pay grade-related fields are displayed only if the Pay Grade access authorization and the necessary pay grade field access authorizations have been enabled for your user role in the Authorizations tab of System Admin > Roles.

Use Base Rate Policy

Base Rate Policy

Select this checkbox to use base rate policies and levels to determine the offer base when you send offer letters in Letter Management.

When you select this checkbox, you can then select which base rate policy that will appear pre-selected in the Send a Letter wizard.

The offer base value is determined by the base rate policy and level selected when the creating an offer letter. See Base Rate Policies in Offer Letters.

Send Pre-Hire Questionnaire Automatically

Sends pre-hire questionnaire requests automatically after candidates accept their job offers. When selected, the following fields are available:

  • From: The sender of the questionnaire email. This can be the hiring manager or recruiter, if their business email addresses are available. Your name is also shown, if your business email is available and you are neither of these individuals. The system email address from the Candidate Communication Email Address setting in Recruiting Setup > Client Properties is also listed.
  • Pre-Hire Questionnaire Template. See Configure Pre-Hire Questionnaire Templates.
  • Expiration in Days: The number of days before the link will expire, after which candidates will not be able to access the questionnaire.

See Send Pre-Hire Questionnaires.

Offer Letter Template

(Optional) When you select one or more offer letter templates from this list, users must use those templates when they send offer letters. Available only for Letter Management.

Access and configuration: To ensure that your recruiters have access to the templates, go to the Templates tab of Letter Management > Template Designer. Their role must be included in the template's Visibility to Roles list.
