**[2. Enhancements – Job Analyzer Feedback Buttons](https://www.lorenzo-datasolutions.com/sap-successfactors-q4-2018-1811-successfactors-employee-central/)**

Automatic release Enhancement Category: Minor Reference Number: SML-946

**What is it?**
 Salary Recommendations and Gender Words Replacements can now receive
feedback and suggestions from Users.

**Why is it important?**
 Improving the quality of the ML Salary recommendations
takes a lot of ongoing input data ; Users will be able to provide feedbacks on whether
they agree or disagree with the Salary Recommendations for a given Job Requisition,
so the ML algorithms can improve continually and provide ever better recommendations.
As per the Gender Replacement Words, the best solution for building up best practices
is people’s knowledge, more than pure machine learning. When Job Analyzer does not
provide any replacement suggestions – or if none of the replacement suggestions 
are satisfactory in that context – the User will be able to enter their own custom
words for replacement. These custom suggestions will be applied, and aggregated 
over time so we can build up a common dictionary of best practices for eliminating
Gendered Wording from Job Requisitions.

**Prerequisites**
 No prerequisite, it will be part of Job Analyzer standard as 
of 1811. ⌊SAP SuccessFactors Training & Certification Online⌉

 Admin Center opt-in Enhancement Category: Minor Reference Number: RCM-51774

**What is it?**
 Ability to send a test email to an email account to see how the
Email Campaign will look.

**Why is it important?**
 It will be possible to send an email campaign to a specific
email account as a test. This way, recruiters can send the test email campaign to
themselves and see how it will look when it is sent to candidates later.

**Prerequisites**
 Email Campaign functionality needs to be enabled ⌊SAP SuccessFactors

**[4. Enhancements – Search Candidates by ‘Marketing Emails Consent’ status](https://www.lorenzo-datasolutions.com/successfactors-employee-central-online-training/)**

Admin Center opt-in Enhancement Category: Minor Reference Number: RCM-51774

**What is it?**
 Ability to search for candidates by their ‘Marketing Emails Consent’
opt-in status.

**Why is it important?**
 It will be possible to find and add candidates to an Email
Campaign by their opt- in status. This would be super helpful when creating an initial
email campaign for existing candidates in the system who have not specified their
marketing email consent status yet and this email campaign is designed to nudge 
them to opt in

**Prerequisites**
 Admin Center > Manage Recruiting Settings > General Data Privacy
Settings: ‘Show the “Consent to Marketing Emails” checkbox on account creation and
on the candidate profile’ must be turned on ⌊SAP SuccessFactors Training & Certification

**[5. Enhancements – Ability to add more than 250,000 candidates to Email Campaign](https://www.lorenzo-datasolutions.com/sap-successfactors-training/)**

Admin Center opt-in Enhancement Category: Minor Reference Number: RCM-51774

**What is it?**
 Ability to add more than 250,000 candidates to an Email Campaign
at a time.

**Why is it important?**
 It will be possible to search for and select up to 2 million
candidates to add to an Email Campaign. This is especially usual when creating an
initial email campaign for existing candidates in the system who have not specified
their marketing email consent status yet and this email campaign is designed to 
nudge them to opt in. There could be many hundreds of thousands of such candidates
in the system and it is useful to be able to ‘select all’ of them to add to a country
specific opt-in email campaign.
