When selecting documents and packets in the Onboarding integration in Bullhorn ATS (either on the candidate record or the placement record), you are now able scroll through and search for all documents available for sending. Previously, a limit was set at 50.

We have added the Placement Status field as an available column on the change request list. To request the Placement Change Request List for your company, contact Bullhorn Support.

Administrators now have a new document editing and approval experience, similar to the document completion experience for employees. The admin portal has been updated with navigational arrows, an “Actions” menu, and icons for different admin actions. We’ve also updated the workflow for editing and approving documents. Administrators can continue to access the document editor via the Employee and Placement document details dashboards, along with the Onboarding dashboard. However, they are no longer able to access the document editor via Edit icon on the document sub-tab on Employee and Placement records.

We’ve made updates to increase speed and stability when navigating the Companies tab.

It is now easier to select from a long list of placements in the employee portal as you’re able to scroll through your list of placements if the list is unable to fit on the screen in front of you.

Custom text set in the Control Panel will now display in the new Onboarding employee portal. Text will only be displayed in the Onboarding employee portal if a custom message is entered by an administrator.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding checkboxes not being selected accurately on the Companies tab. Now, you are able to select the correct checkbox when needed.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding the associated company and contact not appearing on the opportunity list view preview slideout, even when the fields were configured to display in the View Layout. These fields now display when they should.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding a parameter of Job “Date Added” being added into the query, regardless of the filters set on the card. With the resolution of this issue, the parameter has been removed from the card query.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding users intermittently receiving an error message after clicking on a record link from the Faster Find drop-down preview results list.

We’ve fixed the issue where re-labeling the Lead Specialties (“specialityCategoryID”) field in field maps was not reflecting the correct label in the Specialty column header of the Leads list.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding break profile changes not being captured in the audit trail. Now, break profile changes are captured in the audit trail.

We’ve improved the user experience of Blueprint. The column headers and paging navigation is now fixed when scrolling through Blueprint contacts, leads, and unknown people.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding PTO accumulation doubling when both Timesheets.Send Time Back and Timesheets.Send Automatically were enabled. Now, PTO is no longer doubling with these settings enabled simultaneously.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding the PTO rate displaying incorrectly on the payable dashboard. The dashboard was displaying incorrect values when PTO hours were entered with a weekly pay type. Now, PTO rates are calculated as expected.

We’ve fixed the issue with notifications not being sent to administrators when all documents were submitted by an employee. Now, with the resolution of this issue, provided the correct setting is enabled, administrators will now receive the notifications.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding the Onboarding dashboard not accurately reflecting percentages for “Submitted” and “Approved.” Now, the dashboard is displaying correct percentages.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding field validations not always being enforced on Onboarding documents. For example, a field restricted to five digits in length was allowing more than five digits. Now, all document field validations will be honored.

We are pleased to announce that Sales Quotas is now Generally Available! This feature allows you to track your users’ individual quarterly sales quotas and measure their performance relative to those quotas, making adjustments throughout the quarter as necessary. You manage this information both on the Goals and Quotas list view and via the Sales Performance dashboard card, located both on My Dashboard and the Opportunity dashboard.

To enable this feature, contact Bullhorn Support. Note that this feature measures Quota performance against Opportunities and is available in Enterprise Edition only.

You can now choose the user that displays as the Published Contact Recruiter when publishing jobs to the Career Portal. Previously, the published contact recruiter defaulted to the job owner. Now, you can choose the contact recruiter from a drop-down on the job publishing page. The new published contact recruiter now also receives an email when a candidate applies to a job that contains a link to both the candidate and job records in Bullhorn.

We have made an enhancement to note-related email notifications to include opportunity references in the subject and body of the emails.
When an opportunity is referenced in a note and you choose to send an email notification for the note, the ID number of the referenced opportunity now appears in the subject of the email, and a link to the opportunity record appears in the email body. If you reference multiple opportunities in the note, the email subject denotes that there are multiple references, and the email body contains links to all of the referenced records.

When creating or editing a document in Onboarding, the Edit Document pop-up has a new look. All existing functionality is the same.

We’ve updated the Packet and Document tables on the employee/candidate record and placement record to now display six packets or documents at a time, which makes viewing and assigning packets and documents easier. The button to send reminders to candidates or placements of assigned documents has been updated to say “Send Reminder.”

We’ve fixed the issue regarding secondary ownership not being taken into account when filtering by “All My Groups” on a Company’s Contacts tab. Previously, “All My Groups” would only return contacts whose primary owner was someone within your department. Now, “All My Groups” returns contacts who are primary and/or secondary owned by someone within your department.

We’ve improved the performance of the “Response Times” card on the Job Dashboard. Additionally, when you run the card for the first time, or if you not select date filters using the configuration options, the card automatically returns data from the past 90 days.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding the wrong status updating when you made inline edits on the Submission list.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding the error that displayed when administrators tried to view certain E-Verify cases. This was typically occurring for older cases which were still in progress. Now, all cases are viewable by administrators with E-Verify access.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding negative supplemental timesheets appearing on multiple invoices; now negative supplemental timesheets will only appear on the invoice linked to the timesheet.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding required fields that were not being displayed as required on documents in the Onboarding candidate/employee portal. Required fields are now highlighted in red. Similarly, if an administrator or a candidate/employee attempt to submit a document without completing all required fields, a notification is displayed indicating which fields are required for document submission.

We are excited to announce that Auto-Add for Email is now generally available! With Auto-Add, Bullhorn creates new contact records for you when you send an email to an unknown person (i.e., they do not have a record in the CRM yet), saving you time you’d otherwise have to spend manually entering data. We’ll associate the new record with an existing company in your database, or, if necessary, create a new company record.

To request this feature, contact Bullhorn Support. Note that Auto-Add is available with Enterprise Edition only. Once enabled, administrators can configure their Auto-Add preferences in Pulse HQ.

You are now able to modify workflow icons via System Settings! Workflow icons display across the top of lead, candidate, contact, company, opportunity, and job records and represent the key stages of the entity’s lifecycle (e.g., Prescreen, Internal Submission, Client Submission, etc.)

To learn more about how to configure these settings, view the Understanding Workflow System Settings article.

After opening a record from a list, have you ever thought to yourself, “it would be great if I could go to the next record in the list without navigating back to the list.” Well, now you can! After opening a record from a list, you will see Previous and Next navigation links on the record page. The navigation links remember the list you opened the record from, and allows you to navigate through those records without returning to the list view.

As of this release, Previous/Next Navigation is available on Candidate, Company, Contact, and Lead records. More record types are coming soon!

We’ve enhanced the Flagged Emails card to allow you to view emails without a subject. Previously, if an email without a subject was flagged, you were unable to access the message from the Flagged Emails card because there was no hyperlinked subject line to click on. Now, the subject line for these emails display as (No subject) so that you can open them.

Bullhorn is excited to announce our new Placement Change Request List! With this list, you can now easily filter and sort your placement change requests, and navigate directly to the placement change requests via the hyperlinked ID number. To request this new feature, please send an email to betarequest@bullhorn.com.

Candidates, contacts, and leads that receive a Bullhorn mass mailing now see information on how to unsubscribe more prominently (i.e., in a darker color) at the bottom of the email.

We’ve made an enhancement to Bullhorn for Mobile that allows you to access records by tapping on links in Bullhorn-related emails. Assuming you have your Default View on Mobile Device preference set to mobile, when you receive an email on your mobile device about, for example, a new candidate being added to the system, you can go directly to the candidate’s record in the mobile application by tapping on the associated link in the email.

Other examples include:

• Note references pertaining to jobs, contacts, leads, and candidates

• Adding/editing leads, opportunities, contacts, jobs, placements, and candidates

• Candidate submissions

We’ve enhanced Blueprint to respect your dismissal of the banner on the Blueprint tab. Previously, when you closed the banner, it would reappear each time you returned to the Blueprint tab. Now, once the banner is dismissed, it does not reappear.

We’ve enhanced Blueprint to allow you to filter known and unknown people by their title.
To request this feature, contact Bullhorn Support. Note that Blueprint is available with Enterprise Edition only.

Bullhorn is excited to announce a new and improved candidate experience for Bullhorn Back Office and Onboarding. Candidates and employees will find a new landing page for timekeeping and onboarding document completion. While on a mobile device, candidates and employees can also enter time, upload attachments, and complete, sign, and submit documents for approval.

We’re really excited about our new release.  As always, Support is available at 617.478.9126, and for a limited time only, you can email onboardingsupport@bullhorn.com to expedite your feedback to our team.

We’ve fixed an issue where clicking on company links in Bullhorn for Email did not open the corresponding record in Bullhorn.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding email activity and merged records. Previously, when you merged two records in Bullhorn, email activity on the secondary record did not appear on the primary record after the merge was completed. Now, all email activity that took place on the secondary record displays correctly on the primary record.

We’ve fixed the issue with duplicate note creation (showing up both on the Notes tab and Last 10 Notes widget) when adding notes via Bullhorn for Mobile or Quick Note.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding the Email Conversation Activity card not refreshing when a user navigated between preview slideouts when on a list view. Now, the card refreshes and displays according to the record you’re viewing.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding the “Added By” field when moving a web response to a submission. Previously, from the job record’s Activity tab, if you moved a web response to a submission, the “Added By” field on the submission would display the “Added By” user of the web response. Now, the “Added By” field on the submission matches the user who moved the web response to a submission.

In the February release, we enhanced the Expected Close Date column for Opportunities to include more flexible filter/search criteria such as This Quarter, Last Quarter, This Month, Last Month, etc. In this release (April), we’ve added two new options, Next Month and Next Quarter, to the filter/search criteria.

Also, when performing an additional criteria search on the Expected Close Date column, you can now further refine your search by selecting a specific date or date range: Before, After, Equals, and Is Between.

To make it easier to add appointments using Bullhorn for Mobile, we’ve changed the required fields from Subject, Type, Date Begin, Date End, Location, and Description to only Subject and Date Begin (which matches the required fields when adding an appointment from the desktop application).

We’ve enhanced our Auto-Add Contacts feature. Now, when you receive an email from a newly auto-added contact, if that contact has an email address in their last name field, the first name and last name will be updated on the contact.

We’ve fixed the issue that was causing some placement record data to be missing while syncing between the Bullhorn CRM and Bullhorn Back Office.

We’ve fixed the issue with the Summary card on the Candidate preview slideout not appearing for clients who do not have dashboard cards enabled. Now, the Summary card displays on the preview slideout regardless of whether or not dashboard cards are enabled.

We’ve fixed the issue with the Bullhorn for Email gadget in Outlook 2016 for Mac not keeping the user login active when Outlook was closed. Now, when these users re-open Outlook, they will not have to log into Bullhorn again.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding the Email Tracking card not showing activity until inbound and outbound email activity was found on the record. Now, the card will display any activity the user is entitled to view regardless of any inbound/outbound dependency.

We fixed the issue that was restricting both employees and administrators from selecting dates beyond 2025 when completing Onboarding documents. Now, the date picker allows you to set a date up to twenty years in the future from the date of the document completion.

We are excited to announce our new Goals & Quotas feature, now in open beta! This new list view gives you the ability to set up quarterly quotas on a per-user basis, as well as monitor performance against those quotas so you can make adjustments throughout the quarter as necessary.

This feature also offers a new Sales Performance Dashboard card that displays total quota, revenue, and number of deals for the quarter, as well as the top 25 performing users.

Please contact Product Management if you would like to participate in the beta program. Note that this feature is available to clients with Enterprise Edition only.

NPS is now out of Beta and generally available! If you are a Corporate or Enterprise Edition customer and do not currently have access to NPS, please contact support for enablement.

Additionally, you can now select responses on the NPS Responses list and export them as a CSV file.

We’ve made an enhancement to the Flagged Emails Pulse card. Previously, only administrators could define trigger words and doing so would apply them to the card for your entire company. Now, all users can define these words for their own cards on the Preferences page.

For more information about the Flagged Emails card (and other Pulse cards), view the Understanding Bullhorn Pulse article. To request this card, contact Bullhorn Support. Note that this feature is available to clients with Enterprise Edition only.

We’ve enhanced your tearsheet lists by adding the ability to view records at 50 rows per page.

We’ve made a change to the Auto-Add Contacts feature. Previously, Auto-Add automatically created contact records when you received emails from unknown senders. Now, contact records are only created when you send emails to unknown senders. This allows for greater control over the quality of data in your system.

Please contact Product Management if you would like to participate in the beta program. Note that this feature is available to clients with Enterprise Edition only.

We’ve updated the client login page with our new logo and branding.

We’ve improved the loading speed for the Companies, Managers, and Vendors tabs. Previously, all assignment data would first load for a given tab and then filter when navigating within these tabs. Now, the application loads data on demand, thereby reducing loading times.

We’ve expanded the functionality of the Login History Report: this report now records employee and administrator logins.

We’ve made an enhancement to update timesheets stuck in a “Processing” status when exporting to QuickBooks. Previously, even when timesheets successfully exported to QuickBooks, the timesheet status would not always update in Bullhorn Back Office. Now, if the status is not immediately updated, Bullhorn Back Office continues to attempt to update the status until a successful or unsuccessful message is received from QuickBooks.

We’ve enhanced our integration with E-Verify by making troubleshooting down time and authentication updates easier and less time consuming going forward.

We’ve updated the Login History Report to now record employee and administrator logins.

We’ve updated Bullhorn for Mobile’s text editor to address some usability-related issues that were prohibiting Bullhorn users from truly taking advantage of the mobile platform. With the upgrade, we’ve fixed issues ranging from the incorrect display of formatted text to not being able to actually enter text into a field. Additionally, the upgraded editor is also now supported on the following devices/browsers:

• iPhone (iOS 8 or later) using Safari or Chrome.

• iPad (iOS 8 or later) using Safari or Chrome).

• Devices running the Android operating system (version 4.4.2 or later) using Chrome.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding all administrators not being displayed in Administrator drop-downs on the Reporting tab.

We’ve fixed the issue with duplicate invoices exporting to QuickBooks; now, only single invoices are exported.

We’ve enhanced our Auto-Add Contacts feature. Now, when you receive emails from unknown senders, you can set a preference to add the contact with a default status of either “New Lead” (Public) or “Private.”

Please contact Bullhorn Product Management if you would like to participate in the beta program. Note that this feature is available to clients with Enterprise Edition only.

We’ve enhanced the internal user picker field to include more information about each user; so your colleagues are more easily identifiable. Now, in addition to first and last name, the picker includes the user’s title, location, email address, phone number, and primary department.

We’ve enhanced the Expected Close Date column for Opportunities with more flexible filter/search criteria in order to give you greater control when filtering/searching on that column. The new filter/search options are as follows: This Year, Last Year, This Quarter, Last Quarter, This Month, Last Month, This Week, Last Week.

These new options are available both on the column itself on the Opportunity list, as well as from the Expected Close Date additional criteria field on the Opportunity search. Note that this feature is available to clients with Enterprise Edition only.

The ID# of a lead is now a hyperlink to the record on the Leads List. This enhancement was made to ensure that lead records are still accessible even if a first and last name are not entered. Note that this feature is available to clients with Enterprise Edition only.

A new pulse card is available for Companies and Opportunities! The Contact Account Engagement card provides statistics that allow you to quickly visualize the percentage of engaged contacts versus all contacts for a specific account.

Please contact Bullhorn Product Management if you would like to participate in the beta program. Note that this feature is available to clients with Enterprise Edition only.

We’ve added pagination to document creation in the Admin application. By paginating, documents now load more quickly and efficiently.

We’ve fixed the issue in Bullhorn for Mobile regarding scrolling the appointment guest picker. Previously, if you searched for a record in the guest picker and the returned list was longer than the visible screen, you’d be unable to scroll to and select the last record on the list. Now, you are able to select the last record without issue.

We’ve fixed the issue in Bullhorn for Mobile regarding adding appointments with no attendees/guests; previously, when doing this, the owner of the appointment (generally the user who created it) would not receive an invitation email for the appointment. Now, the owner receives the invitation email as they should.

We fixed the issue in Bullhorn for Mobile regarding the Full Address field only displaying two or three lines of address data. Now, the Full Address field always display all address data.

We’ve fixed an issue regarding the DHTML Editor field paragraph format switching to “Formatted” as soon as you would click inside the editor. The default paragraph format is now “Normal.”

We’ve fixed the issue that prevented users from deleting saved searches if the search name extended under the Delete button in the Favorites drop-down. It is now possible to delete saved searches of any length.

On the task list Columns drop-down, we’ve renamed the read-only “Child Task Owners” column to “Assigned To” to make it consistent with the name of its associated field elsewhere in Bullhorn.

We fixed the issue that was preventing existing employees from updating in Quickbooks, which, in turn, was also preventing the completion of ATS refreshes. Now, ATS refreshes are completing and existing employees in QuickBooks are updating as they should.

We fixed the issue that was causing timesheet hours to be incorrectly assigned to different timesheet categories (overtime, doubletime, standard) when exported. This issue was evident in QuickBooks exports and custom exports. Now, timesheet hours are correctly assigned to the proper category.

We fixed the issue that was causing additional white space before and after data in cells with CSV exports. Now, CSV exports do not contain additional white spaces in the cells.

We’ve made some architectural improvements to our Constant Contact integration. As a result, administrators will need to re-authenticate to Constant Contact in order to push tearsheets.

If you use the Bullhorn ATS/Onboarding integration, you now have access to the Onboarding card on the Details tab of the preview slideout on your submissions list.

Bullhorn now gives you the ability to have contact records automatically created when you receive emails from unknown senders. When this feature is enabled, we detect the domain of the unknown sender and scan your database for contacts with a matching domain – if there’s a match, we’ll add that contact to the appropriate company record. If there’s no match, we look up the domain and add the company and contact for you — decreasing data entry and increasing productivity!

Please contact Product Management if you would like to participate in the beta program.

Note: This feature is for Enterprise Edition only.

Employment Type is now visible for jobs in the drop-downs for Faster Find and the Jobs picker, making it easier to identify the correct job when performing a search.

Bullhorn now gives you the ability to mark files stored on candidate, contact, company, opportunity, job, and placement records as private, and share those files with specific users. On the Files tab for each of these record types, there is a new column labeled Visibility. This column, which can be sorted and filtered like the other columns on the tab, displays either Public or Private, denoting whether a file is visible to all users (assuming they can see the record) or not. For more information on private files, click here.

We’ve redesigned the Tasks section on the company record Activity tab for better performance – information now loads faster and you have the ability to page through your related tasks in groups of 10, 25, 50, or 100.

The Comments field on the Edit Submission page is now an HTML editor field, just as it appears on the Add Submission page, instead of just a simple text block.

We’ve updated the title of the browser tab that displays when logged into Bullhorn from “Bullhorn S Release” to the more all-encompassing “Bullhorn.”

Our status page has been updated with a new look and new functionality. You can now subscribe to updates via email, SMS, or RSS. Click here for more information on this page.

For weekly time input, doubletime rules now include overtime and normal hours to accrue towards an employee’s weekly amount.

We’ve updated the Onboarding integration settings page in the Control Panel to make navigation simpler and clearer. Now, shared email variables are highlighted towards the top of the page, with specific types of email variables grouped with their email type.

We’ve improved the stability of the Employee Document History pop-up. Now, it maintains authenticated sessions and displays the document history for employees.

We’ve stabilized the Document History audit trail for Vendors. Previously, if a Vendor updated a date field, the data would not appear in the document history, but the change would still be processed. Now, all vendor date changes appear in document history.

We’ve updated the Approvers by Branch Report to reflect managers with currently active assignments (i.e., assignments starting in the past and ending in the future). Previously, extraneous managers were appearing on this report with inactive assignments.

We’ve fixed the formatting issue regarding the default message signature and text format. Previously, the font text format options set in Preferences were not always respected in email messages (both when composing and on the recipient’s end). Now, font formatting set in preferences, for both email creation and on the receiving end, are consistent.

In a previous release, we addressed an issue where applying a filter to a column, clearing that filter, applying a different filter, and then saving the search as a favorite would save the search with the initial filter applied. However, this fix only worked if the “Clear” button in the upper-right corner of the list view page was used to clear the initial filter, rather than using the smaller Clear button within the column header itself. In this release, we have addressed the latter, and favorite searches will no longer save with cached column filters, regardless of how those filters are cleared.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding a contact’s full address not displaying on the summary card in the Bullhorn for Mobile app, even when it was included in the Mobile View Layout. Now, the full address appears when and where it should.

We’ve resolved the issue regarding either an “HTTP Error 414 – The request URL is too long” or “400 Bad Request” that appeared when users attempted to perform a mass record action after a large, complex keyword search. Now, the mass actions can be completed successfully.
