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 hover tooltip for the first state in the workflow provides additional details about the workflow as a whole and not just that workflow state.

The table below explains how each workflow privilege works.
