Pattern Decisions This Source Supports
| Pattern | Supported decision | Required contract | Claim note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Complete multiple tasks | Choose complete multiple tasks when users need a saved progress hub for several meaningful task sections in a transaction. | Selecting a task row opens that task and returns users to the same hub with updated status after save, skip, or completion. | Scottish Government supports completion counts, current states, application incomplete heading, and skip to first incomplete section. |
| Task list | Choose task list when the interface needs row-level task names, links, hint text, and status labels for a known set of service tasks. | A startable task row opens the represented task; the status label is not a separate primary command. | Scottish Government supports completion states, completed counts, incomplete heading, and first-incomplete navigation in task lists. |
