Manage Change Requests

Learn how admins review, approve, or reject members’ requests to change locked or restricted fields on their digital business cards, and how members submit those requests.

Overview

Required Subscription: Event Lead Capture, Digital Business Card

Admins can keep members’ digital business cards consistent by locking cards or restricting specific fields through subteam restrictions. When a member needs to update a locked or restricted field, they submit a change request. The change only appears on their card after an admin approves it.

Troubleshooting

Issue

What to check

A member can’t submit a change request

Confirm they’re on a subteam with restrictions turned on for that field. Members who aren’t on a subteam can’t submit requests.

Requests aren’t showing on the Requests page

Confirm you’re signed in as an admin, and that the member is on a subteam with restrictions.

A member can edit a field without submitting a request

The field isn’t restricted. Add it to the subteam’s restrictions.

A member didn’t get a decision email

Ask them to check their spam or junk folder.
