Error Report Workflow

This page allows the admin to review and manage all student-reported errors. The super admin is responsible for verifying whether the reported error is valid and acting when necessary. The error report table includes the following columns:

For each pending report, there is a “Resolve” button. The following happens when the admin clicks the button:

  • A modal opens, allowing them to confirm and process the correction.
  • Within the modal, click “Resolve Report” to finalise the update.
  • Once submitted, the status is updated from Pending to Resolved.
