A red compliance flag means a document your brokerage marks as required is missing, unsigned, or out of date. The Compliance panel on the file tells you exactly which item is outstanding so you can clear it before it holds up the closing, or a broker review.
Read the flag
Open the Compliance panel from the transaction header. Each required item shows green when satisfied and red when it is not, with a short reason: not uploaded, awaiting signature, or expired. The flag rolls up to the file's header badge and to your broker's audit dashboard, so it is visible until resolved.
Clear the item
Click the flagged item to act on it inline, upload the missing document, send it for signature, or replace an expired version. The moment the requirement is satisfied the flag turns green and the change is written to the activity log with your name and a timestamp.
Stay audit ready
Required-document rules are set by your brokerage, so the same checks apply to every file consistently. A file with no open flags is, by definition, complete against your brokerage's policy: which is what a broker review or a state audit is looking for.
