A family corrects its own record

Step by step

1. 1

   Step 1: The family edits its details

   Any member of the family corrects the family’s details and each member’s: a phone number, an address, a profession, a photo. They can add somebody to the family too.

   What the others see: Each field says whether it applies at once or waits for the office.

2. 2

   Step 2: Some changes wait for the office

   A fact the parish keeps, such as a date of birth, is sent to the office rather than changed.

   What the others see: The family is told the change went to the office, and can follow it under what they asked for.

3. 3

   Step 3: The office decides

   The office sees the old and the new value and approves or declines.

   What the others see: The record changes on approval. Every change is in the change history: who, what and when.
