Request TypeImage Modified

If a user already has access to a folder and another request is made to revoke access for a user to that folder make sure you are approving the correct action. If you approve a Revoke request, that user will no longer have permission to that folder. If you decline a Revoke request, the means the user will still have their current permissions.

Explanation of Page Layout:

  1. The user, along with all their information, wishing to gain access to a folder.
  2.  The folder the user will have access to and the type of permission. NOTE: If multiple folders were selected, they will all display under the drop down box next to Membership to:
  3. The length of time the permission will last. If the Expire On option was selected a different date can be picked. If the Expire After option was selected a different amount of days can be entered.
    NOTE: Once the Approve button is clicked in step 7, a different date option can be selected before clicking OK.
  4. All authorizer(s) for the folder.
  5. The reason why the user needs permission for the folder.
  6. MANDATORY explanation, by the authorizer, why permission is being approved or declined.
  7.  Click Approve or Decline for the permission and click OK.
