Managing Workforce Stages and Statuses

Understand the difference between stages and statuses, learn which stages can be scheduled, and update an employee's stage or status.

Understand stages and statuses

Every profile has a stage that represents where the person is in their relationship with your agency.

There are three groups of stages:

  • Recruiting

    • Prospect

    • Application

    • Evaluation

    • Offer

  • Workforce

    • Onboarding

    • Active

    • Paused

    • Departure

  • Inactive

Statuses are created and customized by your agency. Each stage can have its own statuses, including custom names and colors.

Where are statuses created?

Admins can create or edit statuses in:

Settings → Lifecycles → Professionals

Add a status under the appropriate stage, then give it a name and color.

If a stage does not have any statuses configured, the Status filter will show No statuses — add in Settings. Click this option to go directly to the appropriate Settings page.

Which employees can be scheduled?

A person's stage determines whether they can be assigned shifts.

Employees in these stages can be assigned shifts:

  • Onboarding

  • Active

  • Departure

People in these stages cannot be assigned shifts:

  • Prospect

  • Application

  • Evaluation

  • Offer

  • Paused

  • Inactive

If someone does not appear when you try to find a caregiver for a shift, check their stage.
