1. New Student Enrolledtrigger
A student record is created with visa details. The automation is triggered when visa information is marked complete.
2. Extract Visa Data
The automation reads student visa details and parses visa type, expiry date, and document status.
3. Log to Visa Tracker
Visa data is automatically written to a centralised tracker with timestamps and source references.
4. Set Expiry Alerts
The automation calculates expiry date minus 60 days and creates a reminder task for the compliance team.
5. Send Reminder
When an expiry date is within 60 days, a notification is sent to the operations channel with student name and expiry date.
6. Generate Compliance Report
On a monthly schedule or on-demand request, the automation queries the visa tracker, filters by status and category, and generates a formatted PDF report.
7. Notify for Approval
The generated report is sent to the compliance manager with a link to review and approve.
8. Archive Report
Once approved, the report is saved to a compliance folder in Google Drive and a submission record is logged.
Everything you need to know before mapping this process.
The system flags incomplete or ambiguous records for manual review by your compliance team, ensuring no data is processed without verification. This prevents errors while still automating the routine cases.
