Taleo OBIEE - Merged Candidate Profiles Showing


I have created a report in Taleo OBIEE and I am getting a result that is not correct and I am trying to mask out the incorrect data (or determine what has been done incorrectly to cause this). I have merged candidates showing on the report. I these cases the following is what has happened:

  1. A recruiter has merged profile A into profile B
  2. Profile B is then matched to a requisition and the candidate is hired
  3. I run a query to find candidates tied to filled requisitions who have not been dis positioned so these can be taken care of

When I run the report, along with the legitimate results I am getting a row with profile A which has been merged into B already. Since the candidate was hired with profile B and A is merged into it I would not expect to be seeing anything ties to profile A.

I have attempted to resolve by looking at the candidate event tied to the merge, but both the A and B profiles have the merge event listed.


Solution

  • When the profiles were merged, the old profile A was soft deleted and was still accessible at the database level. In OBI Reporting you can mask out these records as follows: Candidate > Candidate Identification > Record Status, with values of AVAILABLE or STORED, and STORED being the soft deleted record.
