It might be because we're using an older UK version of Graduate Education Manager (Haplo), but does anyone else have the problem that it's not always clear what's a clickable button and what's not? I endlessly find myself having to send screenshots to users showing them where to click

Anything that is an action usually has a green, yellow, or red marker, but anything that navigates to forms and documents is less clear. Have included a couple of screenshots but would be lovely if this could be resolved! I'm sure it would make the system more accessible.

I dont recall having feedback like this, but I do remember having feedback that the traffic light colours were confusing.  The person felt that green should mean that it has been completed, whereas red should mean that action needs to be taken.  Because of this, they struggled to realise that they needed to follow the green option to progress the task forwards.

Yes - we've received similar feedback about both the buttons (not knowing where to click) and also the colours of the dots. This is across all of the Researcher Solutions (Haplo) modules. Some action buttons have dots and some (extremely important) buttons such as the deposit button in the Repository, don't have dots so get missed by the end users. I would suggest a UX review so that there is consistency to assist users in identifying when an action is required. Currently, in some cases, there is a button with no coloured dots, sometimes it is a link, sometimes there is a button with a green dot and sometimes an amber dot. Given the movement towards platform, it would make sense to apply a design similar to SP so that sites using a blend of modules have consistency across all and aren't trying to train different experiences depending on where the user is in the system.
