Test the worker application flow

Use fictional details only. This site does not submit anything to an authority or to Shiftcare. Your staff account needs both Reviewer and Approver permissions for this walkthrough.

Test documents

• Download fictional evidence pack
• Download expired example
• Download adverse example

Complete one application

1. Open the application. Use Alex Sample, alex@example.invalid and 0400 000 000. Read the test notice, tick consent and submit. Copy the application reference.
2. Open Staff applications. Sign in and use the six-digit code from your authenticator app. Open your new application.
3. Choose Shortlist under Next step, enter a reason and save. Then choose Request documents, enter a reason and save.
4. Create an upload code. Copy it, then open Send documents in another tab. Enter the application reference and code, consent, then upload the fictional evidence pack as Other document. The upload session lasts 30 minutes; the code can only be used once.
5. Back in the staff record, refresh. Enter a file-check reason and choose Check file safety. Wait for the real scan. Repeat if still waiting. Open the clean file and review it.
6. Choose Start checking and save a reason. Record all eight checks below. Use the clean evidence pack for document checks. Check every result yourself and tick confirmation. For the screening check, write Fictional register simulation - dev only as the source; never claim you checked a real authority.
7. Once no required checks remain, choose Approve for onboarding, enter a reason and confirm. Approval is a human test decision, not real employment clearance.
8. Create and download the worker summary. Simulate manually entering it into Shiftcare; do not enter fictional people into the real vendor. Choose Confirm added to Shiftcare and record TEST-SHIFTCARE-001. Confirm and save.
9. Reopen the record and check the saved status, summary and history. Optionally record an adverse screening result: the worker must become non-compliant and further handoff must be blocked.

Eight checks for this test

For each check enter a source, at least ten characters of review notes and confirm. These rules are test inputs, not an approved provider checklist. Driving clients is outside this walkthrough.

Failure checks

Try an invalid phone number, reuse an upload code, try to approve before all checks pass, or save an expired check as passed. Each must be rejected without claiming success. A file awaiting scanning must not be downloadable.
