What do the colored flags represent?

On Hold: A project can be placed “On Hold,” either by a client or a member of our team for various reasons. The intent is for the project to be reopened at a later date. If a project has been in this status for a significant amount of time, it is subjected to being “Closed.” The client would then submit another CommReq when ready to proceed.
