People lifecycle stages
In Worknice, each person record moves through a lifecycle status depending on their stage of employment and platform access. These statuses control visibility, notifications, and how you manage people across the system.
Draft
A person has been added to Worknice but not yet invited.
Account owners can assign forms, documents, reviews, certificates, and surveys.
Notifications: Draft people do not receive any notifications.
Invited
A person has been invited to the platform but has not yet accepted.
Notifications: They only receive the invitation notification and any follow up invitation notifications.
Onboarding
A person has created a login and is currently completing their onboarding workflow.
Notifications: They will receive notifications for any additional paperwork, tasks or reviews assigned to them.
Active
A person who has completed onboarding and is an active employee.
Active people do not display a badge on their profile. This reduces clutter and keeps other status badges more visible.
Notifications: They will receive any notifications available.
Terminated
A person whose employment has ended.
Notifications: Terminated people do not receive notifications.
Archived
A person who has been removed from your People Directory.
Archiving preserves all data so you can access it later—no information is lost.
Archived people can be reinstated if needed.
Notifications: Archived people do not receive notifications.
Filtering by Status
