When assigning users to an Org2Org app configured to link and push data between two Okta Orgs through provisioning the Initial status option is presented to the admin as a way to determine the user's default state when created in the target org.

• Provisioning
• Org2Org
• Initial Status

Each of the above presented options corresponds to an user status described on the About user account status article like so:

• users with the active_with_pass will transition into Active.
• users with active_without_pass will transition to Pending user action and an email will be sent to the user for setting their password.
• users with pending_with_pass will transition to Staged with a password set needing to be activated manually or via an API call.
• users with pending_without_pass will transition to Staged without a password set and will need to be activated manually or via an API call
