Tip

A scaffold turns red when an inspection fails, a Critical defect is reported, or someone presses Red tag — do not use or sets the tag to Red. Field & Safety → Defects (Defects) lists scaffold defects raised by inspections or field reports. Use List (default shows Open & in progress) or Board. Tiles: Open, In Progress, Critical open and Past due. Filter by status, severity, job and assignee. The menu badge counts open High and Critical defects. The safety team is notified. If you leave them blank, the job's foreman is assigned and the due date is set from the severity.
