Vacancy Application Outcomes in PICSWeb Configuration

The Application Outcomes tab in the Vacancies section of Lists and Types Configuration is where you can set up and maintain the possible outcomes for Vacancy Application Records. You can use these outcomes to offer more information on the application, beyond whether it was successful or not. For each outcome, the following details are shown:

  • Code

  • Description

  • Outcome Considered Successful

  • Status – This indicates whether the outcome is Live or Dormant.

Filtering the List

The option to search by Code and Description and filter by Status and Number of Records shown are available by default above the list. Once you have entered the necessary details, press Enter or select the Search icon to run the search and apply your filters.

Exporting the List

Selecting More shows an option to Export to Excel. Selecting this will generate an Excel Spreadsheet containing the details currently displayed in the list.

Creating a New Application Outcome

Selecting Create will open a window where you can enter the Code, Description, and specify whether the outcome is Considered Successful. 

Once you have finished, select Save to add the new outcome or Cancel to discard it. 

Application Outcome Actions

The following actions are also available from the outcomes tab:

  • Edit – Selecting ... > Edit by an outcome in the list will open a window where you can edit the Description, Status, and whether the outcome is Considered Successful. Once you have made any changes, select Save to confirm them.

  • Delete – Selecting ... > Delete by an outcome in the list will delete it. This should only be done for outcomes entered in error. For an outcome that has been used, you should instead set the status to Dormant. You will be asked to confirm before you delete the record.
