        When editing the status conditions, the first four attributes of each type display. You can select the drop-down list to select different status conditions.
      • Active
      • Show on homepage
      • Show on needs attention

      Set to true or false. If set to true, then the logged-in user can choose to show the attribute on their homepage solution cards and then personalize the thresholds for that attribute.
      • Threshold for moderate
      • Threshold for severe

      Change the number from the default threshold to the threshold that you want to set for each attribute.

      If a threshold is set to zero (0), then that attribute field is empty.
