ADMINISTERING


Rename person - name change ignored by user
If a user ignores a proposed name change, and does not accept or reject the name change, a series of administration requests are generated. These requests require the administrator's attention and one requires the administrator's approval. The sequence of requests is generated only when the name change is ignored by the user.
