Technical Fields


I like that in TurboTax, they present "flags" and "notifications" that indicate something that user will need to come back to an look at. Good plan; if the field isn't critical at the moment, then the user can continue on with their process and return when they're ready to focus on the suggested task.

The problem I have in this example is the tech talk that is used: what is "service-1?" I have no context of what the issue is. I have to click on Fix in order to understand what the problem is so I can decide if I'm going to Flag or Fix it (of course, I've already clicked on Fix).

Better is to provide a more natural language of the field in question, or the title of the page.
