correction needed

a status showing that information contains an error or omission that must be corrected before it can be submitted.

In plain English

This means some of the information is not acceptable yet. Something is wrong or missing, and it has to be fixed first. Until that is corrected, submission cannot happen.

In context

Here, "correction needed" signals that the form still contains information with an error or omission that must be fixed before submission.

Situation

What it communicates

Meaning limits

By itself, the term does not identify which information is wrong or missing.

Examples

Core meaning
