RAG Icons
Numerous RAG (Red, Amber, Green) status icons are available throughout ActiveControl to give visibility on particular issues and scenarios as part of the delivery of SAP change.
Some of these status Icons were pre-existing in earlier versions of ActiveControl, whilst some are newly introduced as part of the new Web Platform UI.
Where the icon is indicating something that is more informational rather than an actual issue, it is typically shown in Blue or Purple for easier differentiation.
