One of the things that we all need to do when integrating with other applications, is to provide a way for the user in the other application to see the print-ready, PDF version of the report for a Profile. We get questions about this all of the time when Business Owners are integrating with an ATS or HRIS.
The Applicant Site project, found in the Open Source area of this site, demonstrates how this can be done. The Reports.aspx page is a container that allows the user to login to choose their Profile report and see the report in an iframe on the page or in a popup window. Most of the heavy lifting is done in the ViewReport.aspx page.
The code below is the Page.Load event handler where the report is run and displayed. This page assumes that the login information is stored in the Session and that the Customer ID and Profile ID are passed to the page in the querystring.
The GetProfileReport method returns the PDF report as a byte array, which can then be displayed directly to the page. This page can be called from a link in an ATS or HRIS. It can be used as is to display the report in a popup or iframe, or it can be modified to download and save the report file.
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string sUserName = Session[Global.SESSION_UserName].ToString();
string sPassword = Session[Global.SESSION_Password].ToString();
int iBOID = (int)Session[Global.SESSION_BOID];
string sCustID = Request.QueryString["c"].ToString().Trim(); ;
string sProfNo = Request.QueryString["p"].ToString().Trim(); ;
byte[] bytes = null;
using (net.clearstar.gateway.profile.Profile gwProfile = new net.clearstar.gateway.profile.Profile())
{
try
{
bytes = gwProfile.GetProfileReport(sUserName, sPassword, iBOID, sCustID, sProfNo, false);
}
catch (System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException ex)
{
//do something
}
if (bytes.Length > 0)
{
Response.BufferOutput = true;
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline");
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
Response.BinaryWrite(bytes);
}
}
}

| ClearStar Releases ScreenMeNow Direct Applicant Data Entry Solution - Monday, January 10, 2011
ClearStar, a leading background screening technology and service provider, announced today the release of ScreenMeNow, a customizable direct applicant data entry interface. This solution comes in response to the increased demand for cost effective human resources solutions.
ScreenMeNow provides a simple, intuitive interface for direct applicant entry of data required for the initiation of a background check. This functionality increases operating efficiencies for an employer by eliminating redundant data entry and decreasing the turnaround time of a background check.
