Create flags for data

Flags can help track the data review process or move the process along. See Examples of flag use. Users can apply flags to records (not discrepancies) in the Listings pages and filter records by flag in the Listings and Discrepancies pages.

Each flag can have any number of states, and users must assign a flag state to a record as well as the flag. A record can have multiple flags assigned, but only one state per flag. The system does not enforce any rules concerning the transition of a record from one flag state to another.

Flags created in DMW are assigned to records in DMW. These flag assignments are not sent to InForm. The system imports InForm form and item states as flags with the records they are assigned to in InForm. These flag assignments cannot be changed in DMW.

The system audits changes in flag assignments to records with the timestamp and user name, by category, in the internal table DME_FLAG_DATA_A.

Tip:

To have a single flag's assignments audited separately, you can create a separate category for it.
