Taleo – Company Logo

January 30, 2025 – 9:04 am

In Taleo, if you are going to create a PDF of the offer letter, you have to do so ‘on the fly’ like the system does. A lot of times, you’ll need the image for the token {Other.CompanyLogos1}. But where do you find this image? While logically you’d believe that there’s a media link someplace to see what they are, you’d be half right. It’s not in the system but if you use http://zonename.taleo.net/custom/images/company_logo_XX.gif with XX being 01 – 30, you can see them.

The ramifications of doing it this way are that if you change the image, it’s updated for any link using that image. This means if you change the image it will change on anything that references that gif.

TCC_Touchpoints

It’s been so long since I’ve worked without these that I forgot that it’s not part an parcel of an implementation if said implementation was done long enough ago. I first got acquainted with TCC in late 2005 and the TCC_Touchpoints weren’t released until November of 2009.

So without further ado, here is the documentation on it as well as an empty touchpoints to get you started.

ListAgg for One to Many Concatenation

January 21, 2025 – 1:29 pm

I’ve had to do this for a couple of reasons, mainly job types and such in the talent user entity and then again in any one to many users like groups and types.

<quer:projection id="listAggJobType" alias="JobType">
	<quer:query projectedClass="Application" alias="talentUserJobType">
		<quer:projections>
			<quer:projection alias="talentUserJobType_list" projectedValueType="string">
			<quer:customFunction name="listagg">
				<quer:field path="Candidate,TalentUser,JobTypes,Description"/>
				<quer:string> ~ </quer:string>
			</quer:customFunction>
			</quer:projection>
		</quer:projections>
		<quer:filterings>
			<quer:filtering>
				<quer:equal>
					<quer:field path="Number"/>
					<quer:field ownerQuery="MainQuery" path="Number"/>
				</quer:equal>
			</quer:filtering>
		</quer:filterings>
	</quer:query>
</quer:projection>

Usually I blog at the end of the day after all the events are complete. It gives me time to reflect on what happened and try to highlight what went on in my world that day.

Today, I found out that the assassin and horrible layout in Acrobat reader is a feature introduced by an update. I haven’t really had to pay attention to it as I really haven’t been using it like I would working full time. And now that I’m using Acrobat reader again, it turns out the bookmarks being on the right side cannot be changed unless you turn off the new version. Can you believe that?

After you change back they ask you why and I was happy to explain how dissatisfied I was and I was proud of myself for omitting the foul language I was spouting when I found out what this horrible ‘update’ was.
