Version 1.6 Release Summary This document provides a summary of the new features which will become available with the upgrade of the Applicant Tracking System (ATS) to version 1.6.0 of the platform. Please note that there is no system downtime associated with this release, and no action is required on your part. Overview of new features Updates to user interface Direct sourcing enhancements New user management functionality Select HR Requisition approval Summary of Features Updates to user interface Quicker response times/faster load time/fully mobile responsive The look and feel of the system has been reworked in version 1.6 and one of the most noticeable changes is the stacked tool bar on the left hand side of the screen. Using this style of menu improves loading speeds as the user will no longer have to load each page of the system only the page they are looking to view. The system is now fully mobile responsive from the candidate portal right through to the ATS. As the users screen size gets smaller (i.e. on phone or tablet) the system will begin to stack vertically and utilise drop down menus to store functionality. In version 1.6 the styling of the user interface has changed from when a user logs in via the login screen Once logged in the new home screen will appear:

Users will now be able to navigate around the system using the drop down menus on the left hand side of the screen This has replaced the old style of menu that used to sit along the top of the screen (see below the menu from 1.5): By clicking on one of the options in this menu, the system will show all other related areas to this option (e.g. Positions will show Openings, Requisitions etc.) These options can then be further drilled down to other areas (e.g. Openings will link to My Openings, My Published, All etc.) Please note that the system will only begin to load the required page once an option without a drop down has been selected (e.g. My Openings Using this method allows the user to access the area of the system they need much faster as the system will only begin loading once the required page has been selected.

The search bar has now been moved across to sit above the new navigation menu: This will work as previously in version 1.5. There is now a dropdown menu next to the search bar that will allow the user to re-run the last search they actioned as well as see all recent searches they have performed in the system. To maximise on space used in the top of the screen, the user details have been consolidated into a dropdown area that will display the following: Name of logged in user List of other users to work on behalf of Configuration scopes available (if multiple are used e.g. Head Office/ Retail) Settings Log out button The filters on each page have been re-styled to allow for better use on mobile optimised/ small screen devices:

When using filters you will be able to keep track of active ones selected under the main filters section, from here you can reset/ remove filters as required The New icon has been changed to stand out more, this will take effect on any screen where a user is looking to create something (e.g. Positions, Requisitions etc.) The application screen has been re-designed to make finding information/ actioning applications simpler. To access candidate information in version 1.6 you will now need to click on the Contact Details icon This will now load up a window containing all information a candidate has entered for these fields. The same styling has been added to the scores/ results area:

To action applications, there is now an Action button that sits under the workflow progress section Clicking on the Action button will prompt the following window to appear (this will show all available actions at this stage of the workflow)

The additional application actions have been re-designed (the actions still function as previously) to see what each button does, simply hover the mouse over the image on the desired button:

Direct sourcing enhancements Choice of workflow management/enhanced communications to the candidate/greater control of talent The button to add a manual candidate has been redesigned and is now easier to find on the position screen When creating a manual candidate the user is now prompted with a Yes/No check box to confirm if a portal account is required for the candidate (an option is required): Clicking Yes will then prompt the user to select what type of account needs to be created (Internal/ External): The user will then go through the manual candidate application process and will then fall into the internal/ external workflow. Clicking No will take the user through the normal manual candidate application form and the candidate will show in the manual candidate workflow. A user can also now submit a manual application for a candidate that is already registered in the system. When entering in an email that a candidate has already registered, the user will be prompted with a message that asks them to confirm that they have the candidate's permission to submit a new application on their behalf (as they will receive email communications upon application submission).

The user will need to click the Terms tick box to confirm the above statement is true before clicking the Create Direct application button:
