How to Request Actions (When You Don't Have Authority)

When you want to edit, revoke, or copy privileges but don’t have the necessary grantable authority, you can submit a request and the system will route it to the lowest level grantor for approval.  A separate request will be created for each privilege. You can manage your requests in the Requests tab on your authority record.
