Default Requisition Template Preferences

Similar to creating a requisition template, preferences for default requisition templates are defined for the following standard requisition template tabs:

  • General
  • Applicant Review
  • Job Ad
  • Application Workflow

To access Default Requisition Template Preferences, go to Admin > Tools > Recruit > Default Requisition Templates.

  • If there are no customizations to the child OU, then the parent OU customizations are applied to all child OUs.
  • Overwrite custom settings checkbox setting
    • If this option is selected, all child OU customizations are deleted from the database, which means the parent OU customizations will be applied to new and existing child OUs.
    • If this option is unselected, all existing child OU customizations will remain unchanged, and any new child OUs will inherit the parent OU customizations by default.
  • If a child OU has been customized to display any widgets, then regardless of the parent OU customizations, the child OU customizations are applied.
  • If a child OU has been customized to hide all widgets, then parent OU customizations will take precedence and will be applied.
