    Thanks for the consideration here John

    I was hoping the logic PageUp is already using that prevents applicants being Added to closed jobs could be applied to Offers as well.

    Maybe in future this could be reconsidered

    Thank you for taking the time to share your idea.

    After careful consideration, we’ve reviewed your idea and, at this time, it is not aligned with our current product priorities.

    PageUp already provides a mechanism for managing offers through headcount management. For example, if a job is approved for five positions and offers are extended to five applicants, any attempt to make a sixth offer will trigger a warning stating, "There are no positions left."

    If a job has been closed but still shows open positions, these should be reviewed and handled appropriately. Were the remaining positions cancelled? If so, the job card should be updated to reflect this accurately. Ensuring the job details are up to date minimises the risk of positions being inadvertently available for offers.

    By maintaining accurate job information, headcount management becomes an effective tool for preventing offers from being initiated when they shouldn't be. This process helps ensure alignment between job approvals, offers, and actual headcount requirements.

    Please know that your idea is not dismissed; it remains a part of our ideas database and may be reconsidered as our priorities evolve in the future.

    We encourage you to continue sharing your thoughts and ideas with us. Your feedback is crucial as we strive to improve and grow.
