Pending user status

When a new user is created with Dual Authorization enabled, the user is set to a pending status.

The user can be approved or denied by the Dual Authorization user assigned by the User Role.

The Dual Authorization process mandates that the user who creates a new user account must not be the same individual who approves it.

While the feature is on, and the option enabled:

  • A review link is displayed in Settings >> Authentication >> Dual Authorization above the Enable section while there are new users pending approval by Dual Authorization.
