Pattern Decisions This Source Supports
| Pattern | Supported decision | Required contract | Claim note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Confirmation page | Choose confirmation page when the transaction is finished and the user needs endpoint proof plus what happens next. | The page appears only after the final action succeeds according to the authoritative system of record. | GOV.UK supports confirmation pages at transaction end with reference, next steps, contact details, useful onward links, feedback, save-record behavior, and bookmarked returns. |
| Toast-only success for completed transaction | Flag this anti-pattern when a committed or high-consequence transaction is confirmed only by a disappearing toast. | The completed transaction remains provable after the toast expires. | Supports durable transaction-end confirmation pages with reference, next steps, contact details, useful onward links, feedback, saved-record behavior, and bookmarked returns. |
