In an inbound job data flow, Greenhouse open job data flows to ChartHop.

### Job status migration

Greenhouse jobs/openings migrate to ChartHop if the Opening status is set to **Open**. As a result, any changes to open roles in ChartHop are not reflected in Greenhouse.

For example, if a mapped Greenhouse role is changed to *Closed* and the department is updated, the job in ChartHop updates to an **Inactive** status and the department in ChartHop is updated.

If multiple Hiring Managers or Recruiters are specified in Greenhouse, ChartHop takes the **first** one specified.

The following table describes how the Greenhouse integration handles its response to changes in a Greenhouse job and opening status. This assumes that the Greenhouse job is not yet mapped to an existing ChartHop job:

| **Greenhouse Job Status** | **Greenhouse Opening Status** | **ChartHop Result**  |
| ------------------------- | ----------------------------- | -------------------- |
| Open                      | Open                          | Created as Active    |
| Open                      | Closed                        | Nothing gets created |
| Draft                     | Open                          | Created as Active    |
| Draft                     | Closed                        | Nothing gets created |
| Close                     | Closed (open is not possible) | Nothing gets created |

:::hint{type="info"}
 It’s important to note that inbound job data flows only pull in **Openings with a status of Open **from your ATS into ChartHop.
:::

Open roles must have a Hiring Manager set in Greenhouse, which will be referenced in Charthop as both the manager and hiring manager. Open roles without a manager set in Greenhouse do not migrate over. Additionally, while a recruiter is not required in Greenhouse, if a recruiter is set in Greenhouse and the recruiter does not exist in ChartHop, the jobs also do not sync over.

### Job status mappings

Greenhouse communicates its hiring status to ChartHop using the following mappings:

| **Greenhouse Opening Status**  | **Data flow** | **ChartHop Status** |
| ------------------------------ | ------------- | ------------------- |
| Open                           | →             | Active              |
| Closed                         | →             | Inactive            |
