{{Infobox|'''Add Member Setting'''

The Advanced Application Setting in Service Manager '''app.requests.addColleagueAsMemberWhenRaising''' will allow you to control if the person raising the request will automatically become a member of the request.  This is useful when there are people that are dedicated to only raising requests for particular services, but do not support these services.  This will allow them to continue to have access to the requests they raise, without giving them full access to all requests belonging to those services.}}

{{Infobox|'''Notifications'''

Becoming a member of a request does not automatically enroll the user to receive update notifications.  Once the user has access to a request through membership, they can choose to ''Follow'' the Timeline of the request to receive notifications.}}
