Instance Number - This is the sequential instance number that is generated for each app.

Last Submission Date - The date the app instance was last submitted.

Link - This is a special link that can be used within the data list report object and will display an Open button that opens the app instance.

Stage - This shows the current workflow stage for the app instance.

Instance ID - This is a system wide unique number that identifies the app instance.

Parent Instance ID - For child apps, this identifies the app's parent instance.
