UI icons & colour legend
ZN ERP uses a consistent set of icons and colours across grids, dashboards and toolbars. Once you learn them you can scan a list in seconds — the dot beside an invoice tells you its status without reading the column.
Status dots
Round coloured dots, typically shown in the first column of any document list.
| Dot | Meaning | Common usage |
|---|---|---|
| ● Green | Posted, paid, completed, in-stock, cleared. | Paid invoices, completed production orders, reconciled receipts. |
| ● Orange | Partly done, near a threshold, attention. | Partly-paid invoice, low-stock item near re-order point, partly-received PO. |
| ● Red | Overdue, blocked, negative. | Overdue receivables, negative-stock item, expired batch, rejected adjustment. |
| ● Grey | Draft, on hold, inactive. | Draft invoices, held documents, discontinued items. |
| ● Blue | Informational / cancelled. | Cancelled vouchers (kept for audit), informational notices. |

- Green — positive / completed.
- Amber — attention / partial.
- Red — problem.
- Blue — informational.
- Grey — neutral / inactive.
