Additional Placement dataData

How it works

Data is only transferred from Bullhorn to InTime, never from InTime to Bullhorn. When something is changed in Bullhorn it creates an “event”. The InTime system checks Bullhorn every minute to see if any new events exist. If there are new events, InTime reads in the updated information from Bullhorn.

...

There are certain fields for each placement which must be populated and correctly formatted for a successful import because they contain data that is mandatory for InTime. These fields are identified on the default mapping page. Additional fields and data can also be imported if required. These are called customisations and have to be specifically configured on your system.

The InTime “Ref Code” for an item imported from Bullhorn will be in the format “BH-n“ where n is the Bullhorn ID Number. This is how InTime associates the item with the correct Bullhorn item and is therefore mandatory. You can also use this to cross-reference items in the two systems. This also means Automatic Ref Code Generators can not be used for clientsPlacements, placementsClients, managersManagers, consultants or workers in InTime. This should not be a problem unless you have been using them in InTime prior to integrating with Bullhorn, please raise this with InTime support Support Team if this applies.

Bullhorn Updates Screen 

Within InTime: Import/Export > Bullhorn Updates

Admins will be able to view all Bullhorn update events that InTime has received along with the a status message. This is accessed from the Batch Operations -> Bullhorn Updates menuvia Import/Export > Bullhorn Updates. If there has been a problem importing a placement record across from Bullhorn, InTime will report the issue and you should go an make the necessary update in Bullhorm - there is a link to try importing manually 'retry' the import again.

In normal conditions Typically you should expect any Bullhorn updates to be reflected in InTime within a couple of minutes. If you have any kind of bulk import or update utility for within Bullhorn it can result in a large number of updates in a short space of time, this means it can take longer for updates to be reflected in InTime.
