Explanation of term

Costs are expenses incurred for a job opening, such as travel reimbursements for applicants, external postings of a job advertisement on a job board, or a print advertisement.


Configuration

To record costs for the job opening and all its postings, types of cost must first be created in the master data. These types of cost can then be selected in a job opening on the tab Costs.


System behavior

  • Number
    An unlimited number of types of cost can be created.
  • Examples
    Customers typically create the following types of cost:
    • Travel costs
    • Trade fair
    • Print advertisement
    • StepStone posting
  • Mandatory fields in the Costs tab
    Date, Amount, Type of cost, and Purpose must be filled out in the Costs tab of the job opening.
  • Filtering
    Filtering by types of cost is not possible.
  • Evaluations
    An evaluation of the types of cost can be done via the Excel raw data report using the data Costs of the job opening.
  • Reporting interface
    Data on the costs of the job opening can be evaluated via the reporting interface.
  • Sorting
    When creating types of cost, they are sorted alphabetically. Other sorting is not possible.
  • Renaming
    Types of cost can be renamed at any time. The new name is immediately displayed in the Costs tab if this type of cost has been selected.
  • Deletion
    Deletion is possible at any time. If the type of cost has already been selected somewhere, it remains at that location until it is also changed or deleted there.


How our customers use this

When a posting is published, an overview of the incurred expenses can be maintained by entering them in the Costs tab of the job opening. An evaluation is then carried out via the Excel raw data in the reporting.
