Recruitment – Letters

Letters of Correspondence

Unlike Training and Events, with Recruitment you can only generate your correspondence in either Word or SAP Script. The following items should be considered:

• If you company uses a particular font set, does it exist within SAP Script – if not it will have to be added.
• Would you need to use the “send to” mail recipient in Word if you are going to email applicants using Outlook (which may not be integrated with SAP Office using SAP Connect)
• Does Word provide sufficient functionality in terms of programming functions to enable you to do everything you need to. You may wish to include IF, THEN, ELSE statements etc, in your letter. SAP Script provides many whilst standard Word provides a bit less.
• Are all the mail merge fields available in Word?

If you would like to hold more expansive details about interview venues you can do so in Word or SAP Script using a few programming commands. SAP allows you to store 6 characters for both the room and building which is great if you are all familiar with them and where they are etc. If you need to store an address for them, then that becomes a lot more difficult. You can use IF statements in both Word and SAP Script to retrieve much more expansive and descriptive texts.
