The logs section of Admin allows for tracking of each email, each error and each search done in the system. The drop-down list titled – xxx Log - is a shortcut to other logs as needed.
Email Log
The Email Log menu item of Admin > Logs records and displays an abbreviated version of every email generated by Cyber Recruiter. The email log displays the last 300 records (6 pages). If additional historical information is needed, use the Report Writer to create a custom report. The data source is View_EmailLog.
The Email Log is a good a place to troubleshoot emailing issues. If Users do not feel that an email is being sent from Cyber Recruiter, the Administrator can check this log to see if an email did go out. If it did, most likely the intended receiver has a spam blocker set too high. If the email is not listed, here the Administrator can check the SMTP server to see if email is working.
A monitoring is included which monitors the email constructiveness in the core system. If the careers module is using the same STMP server then the test will be applicable to both sites. On the bottom of the Log page, enter the email address of the person who should be notified of the status of the emails. An email trigger is attempted each night from the server (setup required ) and if the emails fails to be sent out, when this person logs into the system a message is presented on the Home Page (Cyber Recruiter failed in sending its test email on DATE at TIME").
The message will stay on the Home page for 7 days. If the monitor is unsuccessful for multiple days, only the last 7 days will appear on the home page.
