System Configuration for Competency Access

After you've made competency information such as start and end dates for skills available in Quadrant Self Service, it's important to remember to set separate access rights to competency information for applicants and employees. It's necessary to grant read only rights to employees because if they have read-write access, editing competency records in Quadrant Self Service will result in their competency history in Quadrant being overwritten with the new, edited record from Quadrant Self Service. This could affect any pay premiums an employee receives for certifications such as CPR. This is not an issue for applicants, so they are able to edit their competency records in Quadrant Self Service.

To set access rights for competencies

1. Open Quadrant.
2. Open the Administration menu, and then the System Configuration window.
3. Select Web Applicant Module from the Type list box.
4. Scroll down to the bottom of the Detail pane.
5. Click Edit.
6. Click in the Competency Access for Appl. row and select Read-Write from the shortcut menu.
7. Click in the Competency Access for Empl. Row and select Read-Only from the shortcut menu.
8. Click Save.
