Checks and tasks

Checks

The most basic concept in Dotfile is the Check. It’s the building block of the app and most other concepts in Dotfile are either associated with checks or function to group checks.

Checks are always tied to an Entity (either an Individual or a Company) and therefore, to one Case. Every Check has a Type and a Status.

Checks Statuses

Checks will progress through statuses before reaching the step where a decision is needed.

You can either make your decision manually or rely on a third-party provider for some checks (AML, Identity Verification).

Here are the different statuses of a check:

• In progress: The check is created and waiting for data collection
• Processing: The submitted data is being automatically processed
• Need review: The check needs to be reviewed manually
• Approved: The check has been approved
• Rejected: The check has been rejected
• Expired: The check has expired

Tasks

Tasks represent all the actions that need to be completed for a Case to be fully Approved. The Task View, accessible from Dotfile’s sidebar acts like a backlog of actions for your team. All Checks that have either an “In Review” or “Expired” status will appear in the Task View.
