PeopleSoft Pivot Grid is a PeopleTools technology that provides actionable operational analytics using charts and grids. Pivot grids enable users to visually display real-time data and organize it on the fly by pivoting and filtering. The self-service, multi-dimensional analytics provided by PeopleSoft Pivot Grid provides users with the business intelligence needed to make informed decisions.
Recruiting Solutions delivers four pivot grids that provide graphic views of important performance measures:
The Job Opening Open and Close Trend chart shows data related to the number of openings that are opened and closed on a monthly basis, giving users a picture of hiring activity across time, departments and locations.
The Job Opening Aging Analysis chart shows the number of open job openings in various pre-defined age bands, providing vital information about an organization’s recruiting backlog.
The In Process Applicants chart shows the distribution of dispositions for applicants who are being considered for job openings, offering a view of the applicant pipeline.
The Time to Fill chart shows monthly average Time to Fill data, helping users to see trends in their ability to fill job openings.
Note: This data is available to recruiters, recruiting managers, recruitment administrators, and hiring managers based on their security acess, or if they are part of the hiring team. They can access the pivot data through various pagelets.
For more information on the setup and capabilities of PeopleSoft Pivot Grid, see PeopleTools: Pivot Grid.

This pivot grid is accessed from pagelets that you can add to your PeopleSoft home page or to the Recruiting Home Page.
On the My Job Openings pagelet, click the My Job Openings Analytics link, then click the Job Opening Open and Close Trend option.

The Job Opening Open and Close Trend pivot grid displays monthly job opening data. By default, the data appears as a bar chart. For each month, one bar represents the number of job openings that were opened, and a second bar represent the number of job openings that were filled.
The opening date for a job opening is considered to be the earliest posting date or, if there are no postings defined, the actual job opening date. The closing date is the date that the job opening status changed to Filled/Closed.

Enter the From Date to define the date range for the pivot grid. Only jobs opened on or after the specified date are included in the chart. Initially, the chart includes data for jobs that were opened within the past year. Note: Because the My Job Openings pagelet shows jobs based on the creation date, not the posting date, the number of job openings represented in the chart does not necessarily match the number in the pagelet even when both are looking at data from the same period of time. |
