What features are supported by the Workday <> RippleMatch integration?
Candidate Push
This allows us to push a candidate’s application from RippleMatch to Workday. Rather than having the candidate complete an external application link, we will be able to automatically send their application directly into Workday.
In addition to the candidate’s application record, we will be able to push the following candidate information into Workday:
Full Name
Email
Phone Number
Resume
Other Attachments
E.g. transcript, portfolio, extra documents, etc.
Candidate Source
This allows you to easily identify the source where candidates are coming from in your ATS, whether that's RippleMatch or another source funneling in through RippleMatch
URL
This is a link to the candidate’s RippleMatch profile
EEO
This is an optional feature which can be enabled
Expected Behavior
Upon clicking Advance on a candidate in your review feed, you will see a new screen called Advance to Next Step
On this screen, you should see a drop down list titled ATS Integration. This list will contain all of your open requisitions within Workday, however the default selection should be to the corresponding Workday requisition for this RippleMatch role
Click Advance to trigger the upload of this candidate into Workday
Then, you can log into Workday and search for the name of the candidate that you’ve just advanced and find their application along with the additional candidate information outlined above

Candidate Status (2-Way)
Candidate Status (2-Way)
This is a feature which can be enabled for the Workday <> RippleMatch integration. This feature enables us to see what Workday stage a candidate is in and allows us to update it in RippleMatch’s Track section. This is to ensure that recruiters have a consistent view of where a candidate is within the application process in both Workday and RippleMatch.
The static RippleMatch stages which we can map to Workday stages are:
Application Pending, Introduced, Working, First Round, Second Round, Final Offer, Offered, Accepted
At this time, we’re only able to map to the default Workday stages: Review, Screen, Interview, Assessment, Reference, Background, Offer
Please note we are not able to map to Steps / Dispositions and are only able to map to the above stages
Expected Behavior
As you advance candidates through the application stages in Workday, candidates’ statuses will be updated in the RippleMatch Track section
This sync runs every 6 hours

Custom Sources
Custom Sources
This is a feature which can be enabled for the Workday <> RippleMatch integration. This feature allows us to import candidate sources from Workday and map those sources to RippleMatch Marketing Channels. For instructions on how to map your sources, please visit the Frequently Asked Questions section.
Expected Behavior
If you are leveraging Tracking Links on RippleMatch, you will likely have a number of Tracking Links under various RippleMatch Marketing Channels
Once your Workday Custom Sources have been mapped to the RippleMatch Marketing Channels, you will see candidates with these custom sources in Workday
Any unmapped sources will default to ‘RippleMatch’

Upload Rejected Candidates
Upload Rejected Candidates
This feature can be enabled for the Workday <> RippleMatch integration. When enabled, it allows rejected candidates in RippleMatch to be uploaded into Workday.
Expected Behavior
When you click Reject on a candidate, we upload the candidate to the default stage in Workday
Then, we take a second action through the integration to reject the newly uploaded application
There may be a delay of upwards of 2 minutes between the candidate’s application being uploaded to Workday and being rejected in Workday
Any manual or automated intervention with the candidate record during this delay can disrupt the rejection
Here is a short video outlining what this should look like!
Best Practices
In this section, you will find some best practices to ensure a seamless integration.
Open Requisitions → we are only able to send candidates to a requisition if it has an Open status within Workday. If you need to close a job posting within Workday, please notify your CSM immediately and either provide a new Req ID you’d like us to use for your RippleMatch role or let us know to Pause or Remove the role from the platform.
Candidates Moving Between Roles → if you are utilizing the Candidate Status (2-Way Sync) feature, we highly recommend that you do not move candidates in between roles in Workday. Once a candidate is moved out of the initial role they were advanced to, we lose visibility of the candidate’s application stage and will be unable to update their status in RippleMatch’s Track section, which will impact analytics.
