Candidate scores define the level of importance of the availability, competencies, and job level of the resource when matched to the specifications of a requirement. The weightings are used to calculate a score for each resource identified by a resource search and for every candidate on your requirements. The score helps you identify stronger candidate. A higher score indicates a better match.

For more information, see Candidate Score Weightings, Oracle Project Resource Management User Guide.

Automated Search and Nomination Process

The automated search process identifies resources that meet the specified criteria for the requirement, including a minimum candidate score, and nominates those resources as candidates on the requirement. This search is an optional process that you can set up to run on a regular frequency, such as, daily or weekly through the concurrent manager.
