Steps: Set Up Complete Form I-9 Business Process

Steps: Set Up Complete Form I-9 Business Process

  • To use the
    E-Verify
    integration, create the integration before you configure the integration steps on the
    Complete Form I-9
    business process.
  • Security: These domains in the System functional area:
    • Business Process Administration
    • Manage: Business Process Definitions
You can set up the
Complete Form I-9
business process so employees can create an electronic Form I-9 to verify U.S. employment eligibility. You can use the
Complete Form I-9
business process independently or as an action on the
Onboarding
business process. You can include integration steps on the
Complete Form I-9
business process to submit employee data to the
E-Verify
integration for work authorization.
When it's part of the
Onboarding
business process, the
Complete Form I-9
action step must come after the:
  • Name Change
    and
    Contact Change
    tasks complete. When you prepopulate the Form I-9, Workday makes the employee's name and home address available for the Form I-9.
  • Completion
    step on the
    Onboarding
    business process, for faster employment verification, as the integration pauses until
    Onboarding
    is complete.
Workday enables you to create a legal Form I-9 but doesn’t assume responsibility for compliance.
