Oracle Performance Management - Notifications to Plan Population Members

Question

All:
I've been working with Performance Management for several years and am implementing for a customer now.  They are on R12.1.3 RUP6.  We're creating notifications to be administered by the Performance Management Admin and the customer has asked for some simple definitions of the Plan Population Members & Statuses.  I created this matrix, based on my own understanding and assumptions and wanted to see if anyone could validate to be sure I have these definitions correct.  Please note that in the "Who Received The Message" column, where "worker" is listed in the matrix, I have only used the term "employee" since the customer is not evaluating contingent workers.  I realize worker could be either an employee or contingent worker. 
Could anyone please tell me where I may have gotten the "Who Receives the Message" definitions wrong?  I've checked online documentation and there isn't anything I could find that makes an attempt to map this.
Thank you,
Mark

Sanjay,
As always, thank you for responding and for your insight.  Your clarifications and thoughts here really helped.  I am also going to post what I received back from Bina Kulkarni at Oracle.  This might be helpful for anyone here looking for additional clarification on the WPM Notifications.  Thanks again for your help!
Take care,
Mark

All managers i the plan
All Managers who have active, eligible employees or terminated employees (during the appraisal period).
Terminated managers will no longer be part of the plan population & hence will not receive any messages.
All eligible workers for the plan
All employees, regardless of their status in the plan. 
All managers with at least one ongoing appraisal
Managers who have not completed all appraisals for their employees.  These will be in “Ongoing with Manager” status
All workers with appraisal pending feedback
Employees, whose managers have submitted their performance appraisals to them, complete with Overall Rating and Performance Summary and are awaiting their response.
All workers with at least one ongoing appraisal
Employees who still have an appraisal sitting with them in draft form, not submitted to their manager.
Here the Appraisal can be in Planned or Saved status.
All managers with at least one incomplete scorecard
Managers with employees who have not completed their scorecards
All managers with at least one scorecard pending for review
Managers who haven’t completed the review of at least one employee’s goals
All managers with at least one scorecard not yet started
This is when the manager begins the goal-setting process (cascading approach) and who have not started creating their employees’ goals (at least one).
All managers with at least one scorecard in transfer
Managers have transferred the employee’s goals back to them and the employee has not returned
Points 10 & 11 below seem the be the same. I think both cases talk about Managers who have set goals for their employees and transferred the scorecard to the employees for their review.
All managers with at least one scorecard transferred out
Managers who have updated their employee’s goals and have transferred them to the employee for review.
Same as above
All workers with an incomplete scorecard
Employees who have started working on their goals, but have not completed them and they are still in draft.
All workers with scorecard pending for managers review
Employees who have submitted their goals to the manager, but the managers has not acted on (updated or approved) the scorecard. 
When employees transfer their scorecard to their managers, the manager can either approve the objectives in the scorecard or Approve and finish objective setting, whereby the scorecard status changes to 'Published' and can no longer be worked upon.
All workers with scorecard not yet started
Employees who have an active scorecard, but have not opened it, started writing or saving the record. 
All workers with scorecard in transfer
Employees who have transferred their goals back to their manager.
All workers with scorecard transferred out
Employees who have transferred their goals from one plan to another plan (e.g., from Student Plan to Lab Regular Plan)
Transferred out means the employee is transferred out of the plan due to hierarchy changes, eligibility changes or termination. In this case the transferred out scorecard is no longer visible amd the objectives from such a scorecard cannot be retrieved.
All workers with scorecard pending with them
Employees who have received their goals back and need to review and resubmit.
This means that the employees have not completed objective setting from their end.
An individual worker or manager (can select from list of values)
This is an option when generating a notification.  You can select a single person and use a notification expressly for hers or his benefits.
I think you are referring to an Ad-Hoc approver here.
All Appraisal Participants
Appraisers, Reviewers or Other Participants who have not completed their appraisal feedback about the employee.
All Approvers
Approvers of appraisals (AME defined or added Ad-hoc)
