    pub total_steps: u32,
    pub started_at: u64,
    pub updated_at: u64,
    pub completed_at: u64,
}

Verification Statuses:

  • NotStarted: Provider registered
  • Pending: Verification in progress
  • InReview: Awaiting admin review
  • Approved: Verification complete
  • Rejected: Verification failed
  • Suspended: Temporarily suspended
  • Revoked: Permanently revoked

Workflow Steps:

  1. Identity Verification
  2. Document Submission
  3. Background Check
  4. Risk Assessment
  5. Compliance Review
  6. Tier Assignment

VerificationWorkflowManager:

  • create_workflow(): Initialize new verification

    Full,        // + Biometric, video verification
}

KYCData Structure:

pub struct KYCData {
    pub provider: Address,
    pub kyc_id: String,

// Step 2: Submit KYC
let kyc_id = KYCIntegrationManager::submit_kyc_verification(
    &env,
    provider,
    KYCLevel::Enhanced,
    document_hash,
)?;

// Step 3: Verify KYC
let kyc_result = KYCIntegrationManager::verify_kyc(&env, provider, kyc_id)?;

// Step 4: Background check
let check_id = BackgroundCheckManager::initiate_check(&env, provider, check_types)?;
let bg_result = BackgroundCheckManager::complete_check(&env, provider, check_id)?;

// Step 5: Assign tier
let tier_assignment = ProviderTierManager::assign_tier(&env, provider)?;

// Step 6: Complete workflow
VerificationWorkflowManager::complete_workflow(&env, workflow.workflow_id, true)?;

Example 2: Check Provider Status

// Get complete dashboard
let dashboard = ProviderDashboardManager::get_dashboard(&env, provider)?;

println!("Tier: {:?}", dashboard.tier);
println!("Status: {:?}", dashboard.verification_status);
println!("KYC Valid: {}", dashboard.kyc_status.verified);
println!("Risk Score: {}", dashboard.background_check_status.risk_score);

Example 3: Track Verification Events

// Get event history
let events = VerificationTrackingManager::get_event_history(&env, &provider);

for event in events.iter() {
    println!("[{}] {:?}: {}", 
        event.timestamp,
        event.event_type,
        event.details
    );
