Security:

Grid Management
domain in the System functional area.

Set Up: Recruiting
domain in the Recruiting functional area.

Create custom candidate list grids to manage and view candidates for a job requisition. Candidate lists display active and inactive candidates according to stage.

You can define more than 1 grid configuration and associate different grid configurations with specific worker subtypes. Example: Define 1 grid configuration for all candidates and another for seasonal candidates. You can also select a default grid configuration that permanently replaces the Workday-delivered candidate list grid.

Workday recommends that you select a default grid configuration to ensure you can view a complete list of your candidates.

Access the

Edit Grid Configuration

task.

Select a grid type:

Option	Description
Grid Configuration	Select a grid that you would like to edit or to create a new grid, select Create Create Grid Configuration .
What type of grid do you want to create?	To create a new grid, select By Category Recruiting Candidate List .
Copy Details from Existing Configurable Grid	To use an existing grid as a template, select Delivered Grid Configurations by Category Recruiting Candidate List .

Add or remove columns to display on the grid. Consider:

Option	Description
Composite Column	Select the Include Composite Column check box to select up to 3 report fields and 1 image to display in the same column. Workday recommends that you don’t use this column type for custom candidate grids.
Individual Columns	Include separate columns for fields and analytics.
Grouped Columns	Group 1 or more fields under a separate tab. Example: Overview contains Added Date , Candidate Location , and Current Job Title .

Workday also recommends that you configure these columns and fields under the

Individual Columns

and

Grouped Column

sections:

Option	Description
Read Only	Add Read Only columns to include report fields with job application information from the Job Applications, Prospects and Referrals business object. To view jobs that the candidate applied for, include the Jobs Applied For field.
Advanced	To access the task in My Tasks when you have a pending action for the job application, include the Awaiting Me field.
