Process a work based application with Dynamics 365
You can initiate the work-based application process in a third-party application which is synchronised with Dynamics 365 for learners matched to a course vacancy, without a pre-existing EBS record.
The following diagram illustrates the interaction between Dynamics 365 and EBS for a work-based, third-party application.
To process an apprenticeship application with Dynamics 365:
-
Create a Vacancy record in Dynamics 365 and export to the relevant third-party application.
The candidate creates a new registration in the third-party application and applies for the vacancy.
The registration details are imported into Dynamics 365 as a Contact record, linked to the vacancy, and as a vacancy match record linked to the vacancy.
Important.The vacancy match record is used to progress the candidate through the application process, until the candidate has been accepted. Once accepted a placement record is generated.
-
Open the relevant Placement record in Dynamics 365 (accessed by selecting the Placements option from the left-hand menu), once placement of the contact at the vacancy has been confirmed, or the candidate has been placed at another vacancy.
The Placement screen is displayed.
