Requesting the # of remaining open positions

Posted by Anonymous (not verified) on in Standard Integration Questions

I'd like to get the "# of remaining open positions", just like the "# of total demand". I need this as we want to use it for our custom report.
I could find the latter as "numberofpositions", but I can't find the first one.
It's possible to have it in a seperte column in our search template.
Can you point me to the correct source?

Has anyone from iCIMS checked in on this? I expect the API to be able to return numberofpositionsremaining but it is not. How do we get that field via API? Anyone else have any luck?

Last time I checked, the field is still not available when getting data from a job profile.

I have two suggestions below. 

1. Have ICIMS create a formula field which populates/replicates the numberofpositionsremaining. Then, call into the formula field because they are available via the API. One caution, there could be a little bit of latency with the formula field populating, so bear that in mind.

2. You can use numberofpositionsremaining as a filter in the search API. So, you can search and see if a job has a specific number of positions remaining. This seems like it would be less likely that it provides a solution for you, but I figured I would mention it.
