Standard Role for the Workflow
| Role                         | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 |

| SAP_RCF_INT_CANDIDATE_SERVER | Internal Candidate (Server) under Roles (User Profiles) This role provides the necessary authorizations for an inter- nal candidate in SAP E-Recruiting that are required on the backend system when using a separated system (front-end and backend on different systems). |
You have to create a corresponding candidate for the background user of the workflow. You use the RCF\_CREATE\_USER report to do this. For more information, see the Customizing for SAP E-Recruiting under Technical Settings → Workflow → Workflow in E-Recruiting .
For the background user to be used in SAP E-Recruiting, the background user requires the authorization to make status changes to the SAP E-Recruiting objects (authorization object P\_RCF\_STAT) in addition to all of the authorizations usually assigned to an internal candidate.
