Manage Unmatched Endorsement Requests

  • Configure the
    Endorse Candidate
    business process in the Recruiting functional area.
  • Security:
    Employee Referrals
    domain in the Recruiting functional area.
If Workday can't match a candidate's self-identified referrer with an existing worker, you can edit the job application and enter the worker's correct name. You can then send the worker a request to endorse the candidate's job application.
You can create a custom report to display all job applications with a self-identified referral that doesn't match an existing worker. Job applications with unmatched self-identified referrals store the name or email that the candidate entered in the
Referred by (unmatched)
field.
