Active vs Inactive Job Descriptions

Let’s explore the V2 enhancements within Job Management. The first V2 enhancement is the separate filter for inactive versus active job descriptions. When you navigate to Job Management from the Home Page using Quick Links, you will see the Show Active Jobs Only toggle switch located in the middle-top of the screen.

By default, the switch is turned on and will only display jobs with the status of active. The green switch indicates that the button is turned on. You can click on the switch to turn it off. When turned off, all active jobs will continue to display.

However, you will also be able to see jobs that you have identified as either Hidden or Retired. Although, you have the same flexibility to set flags in V1, changing the status or flag of a job is easier in V2.

In the job description grid, you will notice the Action column located to the left of the Job Description Name, (the first column in the grid). There you will see a Gear icon which will take you to the properties of the job description.

Once the dialogue box opens for Edit Core Job Description Values, you can select the tab for Job Flags. You will be able to update the flag of the selected job description, but just remember that if you set the flag to Hidden or Retired, it will no longer appear on the grid if you have the Show Active Jobs Only switch turned on. In this example, we've made our Accountant I retired.

When you toggle back to show active jobs only and the screen refreshes, you no longer see my Accountant I in the grid list.
