In order to identify the best talent from the talent pool the intial scrutiny of application is done by the Line Managers.

2.1 Solution Design
Proposed Approach addresses the above gaps and gives the LM the visibility to select the best talent.

For LM the each document link is coming from the Content server and the same link we are passing to open the attachments and while saving the documents, filename is taking as system id. To over ride this functionality we used the "Link to Action UI" element for the attachments.
We created one custom method for the on action button ON_CLICK_ATTACH.
ON_CLICK_ATTACH Method:

Files can be created in applications in a number of standard formats. You can tell which format is being used by looking at the last part of the full file name, known as the file name extension. For example, the filename dogs.bmp has the filename extension .bmp, which tells us that this is an image file stored in bitmap format.
Good file names can provide useful cues to the content and status of a file, can uniquely identify a file and can help in classifying files.
The authors of “Why ERP?: A Primer On SAP Implementation” discussed the reasons of the successful installation in one facility and the failure in other. Regardless of the nature of the business SAP R/3 has been successful in many organizations such as Ohio plant. The system works very well in organizations that have multiple locations of operations, in” firms for which the change costs are small and in plants which require low flexibility and high centralization (Jacobs & Whybark, 2000, p.126). In contrast, there are many reasons that SAP R/3 might not be successful. SAP R/3 is not appropriate in firms with low turnover and low profitability. Additionally, in some companies manufacturing customized products, SAP R/3 are not appropriate. For instance, the Ohio and North Carolina products are not the same; Ohio’s is in mass production while the other manufactures customized products.

At present, each SGI office location stores its electronic files on a Windows server located at that office. This makes accessing the files difficult for other offices. The goal is to make all SGI files equally accessible to all SGI locations. When an employee wants to access a document, they shouldn’t need to worry about the location where the file is stored or have to involve other employees in the process of obtaining the document.
