Manage flags on profiles

In the Axon app, users with specific privileges can add flags (colored labels) to persons, citizens, organizations, and vehicles that quickly alert users to important information. A flag category is created in the Administrator Console on the desktop application and manually added to a profile, either from desktop or the mobile app.

You can add multiple flags to a profile. Flags are sorted from highest to lowest severity (high → medium → low) on a person's profile. Within each severity group, flags are sorted chronologically, with the most recently added flag appearing first.

To manage the flags on a profile:

1. Using Search, find and open the profile.
2. Select More Actions [...] > Manage flags.
3. Select Add a new flag to add a flag to the profile.
   • When adding a flag, you must include an expiration date, after which the flag is automatically archived.
   • To create a new flag category, use the desktop application.
   • If your agency uses both Records and Standards, you will see all flag categories that have been created for both products.
4. Select the pencil icon to update an existing flag.
5. Select the trash can icon to delete or archive a flag.
   • Deleted flags are removed entirely from the profile.
   • Archived flags can be found later and unarchived when viewing the profile in the desktop application.
6. Select Close to return to viewing the full profile.
