Routing-Applicant File
Page Location: Applicant File > Activity > Routing
The Routings Tab holds all the routing activity as it relates to the users for the applicant. Each record added to this page is totalled as the "Routings" when running the Requisition Activity report. So, if an applicant had more than one routing or the information was sent to more than one person the numbers will be increased accordingly on the Requisition Activity report.
The goal of this process is to gather feedback from evaluators which will dictate the next step in the process.
Adding Routings
Routings Tab is used to sent out evaluation requests and to track information being returned.
Adding a new routing record adds details on the Home Page > Actions Items and can send an emails to the evaluator.

Editing Routings
From the routing summary tab, the pencil icon allows a user to edit a routing record. Routing details can be changed but the information cannot be re-sent to the evaluator with the updated information.
The edit mode also allows a user manually to enter in the feedback. This is handy if the evaluator does not have access to Cyber Recruiter or if someone in the Human Resources department is responsible for this stage of the recruiting process. Only users with the proper security level have the ability to edit information.
Routing Summary View
The routing summary provides a quick glance of information regarding the evaluation process. All routings are seen on the summary page regardless of security access. However, depending on the level of security assign, a routing record may be restricted from editing or reviewing the detail.
The printer icon on the top of the page prints a summary report of all information related to the Activity page, not just the Routing records.
