Membership approvers are responsible for reviewing the user registration requests that are made to their organization. They will typically have access to personnel records for the organization in order to identify the registrant and their role.

User must have a translation, translation support, or publication role that is supervised by your organization.
When the user registers and specifies your organization from the drop down list, they are added to the top of the list for your organization at https://registry.paratext.org like this:
You will be notified once a day by email about new membership requests. The email will contain a link that takes you directly to this page. You have three choices:
When users upgrade from Paratext 7 with a valid license, they will automatically be approved. In this case, the email you receive will just be a notification that the person has registered.
It is possible to set an auto-approval email domain, such as “translator.org”. This must be done by the registry administrator for your organization. Please note that if you set an auto approval domain, you must pay close attention to the emails messages that notify you when someone has registered. Just because they have an email address for your organization does not mean that they have a role in translation.
