Creating offers
When you've selected a candidate, create an Offer to record the formal proposal — the role, compensation, start date, and any conditions.
Steps
- Open the selected candidate's application.
- Select Create Offer (or move them to the Offer stage, which may prompt for offer details).
- Enter the offer details:
- Position / title and department
- Compensation — base salary, bonus, allowances, currency
- Start date
- Employment type and any conditions or notes
- Attach or generate an offer letter if your organisation uses one.
- Save the offer.

Managing offers
From the candidate's application (or the offers area) you can:
- Edit offer details before it's sent.
- Route the offer for approval — see Approvals & invites.
- Send the offer to the candidate and track their response.
- Record the candidate's acceptance or decline.
Special offer types
Depending on your configuration, X0PA AI may support additional offer handling such as backdated offers and carry-forward offers for specific business processes. These behave like standard offers with extra date/tracking fields.
:::caution Sending offers Sending an offer notifies the candidate. Make sure the details are approved and correct — treat this as an outward-facing, hard-to-reverse action. :::
