Workflows

The Flags Report workflow is used for reports where a flag is automatically added to any people, vehicles, etc. that are added to the report. Once created, a flag report moves through a workflow that contains two states: Draft → Finalized.

Each state is associated with multiple privileges, which give you granular control over which users can take actions on a request, based on its current state.

The workflow privileges for appear at the end of the category. Within the workflow subcategory, privileges are sorted by state.
The image displays the Flags section with privileges grouped into categories such as Flags, each showing the number of privileges allowed alongside options to Allow All or Prohibit All. A highlighted section expands Workflow - Flags Report, showing subcategories like Open State and Closed State. Each subcategory lists the number of allowed privileges with options to manage them.

The hover tooltip for the Draft State - Create tasks privilege provides additional details about the workflow as a whole, and not just the Create tasks privilege.
The image displays the Workflow - Flags Report subcategory. Under Draft State, a privilege for Create tasks includes a tooltip that explains how reports move through the workflow.
