Onboarding Data Validation Enhanced to Prevent Orphaned Records

System

An issue was resolved where incomplete onboarding initiation requests could create orphaned user records without corresponding employee records in the database, which caused data inconsistencies and incomplete user profiles.

Why does it matter?

The system now validates all required fields before creating any database records. Previously, when users submitted initiation data missing required fields like Work State Code, the system would create a user profile but fail to create the expected employee record, leaving orphaned data. This fix ensures:

  • All required fields are validated upfront before any record creation
  • Clear error messages indicate which specific fields are missing
  • User and employee records are created together or not at all
  • Data integrity is maintained throughout the onboarding process

This improvement enhances data consistency and provides better user feedback during the onboarding workflow.
