Participants

The Participants page is the cross-matter directory of every individual your organization has interacted with. Where the Clients page focuses on the people you have a service relationship with, Participants is broader — it includes counterparties on the other side of a transaction, third-parties mentioned on a matter, and the staff members assigned to those matters.

The page header shows the title Participants, a one-line description, and the standard Help (?) and Docs (book) icons in the top-right. Help opens an in-portal slide-out summary; Docs opens this page in a new tab.

A single-select dropdown lets you narrow the table to one role at a time:

  • Clients — people on your side of the transaction
  • Counterparties — people on the other side
  • Third-parties — non-transacting individuals named on a matter
  • Assigned Staff — your own users assigned to matters

Clearing the filter shows everyone.

The search box matches on name and email. Results update as you type and respect the active type filter.

ColumnDescription
NameDisplay name with a red triangle if a potential conflict has been detected
TypeOne or more role badges (a single person can be both a client and a counterparty across different matters)
Current MatterMost recently active matter — clickable
Newest MatterMost recently added matter — clickable
MattersTotal matter count across all time
IDVLast identity verification date, color-coded by status
KYCLast KYC check date, color-coded by status

The status colours follow a consistent convention across the portal:

  • Green — approved / passed
  • Amber — pending / in progress
  • Red — rejected
  • Orange — expired
  • Grey “Never” — no verification on file

A common workflow is to filter to Clients, scan the IDV and KYC columns for orange or red entries, and reach out to anyone whose verifications are expired or rejected.

When the platform detects a person on both sides of two matters, a red triangle appears next to the name. Click into the participant record to see the full list of matters they touch and decide whether the conflict is material.

The link behaviour from the Name column is type-aware:

  • Clients route to the full Client record
  • Staff route to their Directory entry
  • Counterparties and Third-parties route to the lightweight Participant profile (matter-scoped only)

This means you don’t have to remember which area of the portal a person lives in — clicking the name always opens the correct profile.
