What do the yellow and red stop signs mean?
Yellow “yield” signs and red “stop” signs are used to indicate exceptions, or policy violations. If a yellow icon appears next to the report total in the expense list, an exception exists for that expense. Yellow exceptions are considered “soft” exceptions. The preparer is advised to correct as many of these as possible; however, a yellow exception will not prevent a report from being submitted. Red flags are considered “hard” exceptions and must be corrected before a report is submitted. A checkmark next to an item means all is well.
