Actual Results
Heading structure is found to be inappropriate on the page. Text such as "Saving changes" and "Manage your issues" is coded as <h4> which does not matches the visual hierarchy on the page. As a result, screen reader users found it difficult to understand the page's content structure.
Expected Results
Use heading levels as per specification such as <h1> should be followed by <h2>, <h3> and so on.
Even though this is required at WCAG 2.1 at Level AAA, it is recommended that the discussed issue be addressed as screen reader users rely on headings heavily to understand the page structure.
