Flags configuration

Users with specific privileges can add flags (colored labels) that serve as quick visual alerts to important information when someone views a profile. In Axon Records, flags can be added to location, organization, people, and vehicle profiles. In Axon Standards, flags can be added to citizen and vehicle profiles. If your organization uses both Axon Records and Axon Standards, any flag categories you create can be used in both places.

Flags are managed from the Flags Configuration tool in the Administrator Console. To access this tool, open the Administrator Console by selecting the gear icon in the main navigation menu, then select Flags Configuration from the tool list.
