01 / The starting point

A clear request.
A useful direction.

A request to find, create, or update a person’s profile

“Identify the intended person and requested profile action, verify the supplied details, and change a profile only after an authorized reviewer approves the exact record and fields.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

6 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps a team find and maintain person profiles while keeping identity checks, data quality, and personal-record changes visible to a reviewer.

  1. Clarify the purpose of the profile request

    Confirm why a profile is needed and whether the request is to retrieve, create, or revise a record.

  2. Verify the person and available details

    Use reliable identifying information and ask a responsible person to resolve similar names or uncertain matches.

  3. Review the source and relevance of each field

    Check that proposed details are accurate, appropriate for the stated purpose, and supported by a trusted source.

  4. Approve the exact profile change

    Show the intended person, current information, proposed fields, and purpose to an authorized reviewer before changing a record.

  5. Retrieve or update the approved profile

    Return the confirmed profile or apply only the fields a reviewer approved, leaving unresolved details untouched.

  6. Record the decision and follow-up

    Keep the review outcome visible to the appropriate owner and route correction or access questions to a person.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

The requested profile is retrieved or an approved change is recorded, while uncertain identities and unapproved personal details remain unchanged.

The handoff

The requested profile is retrieved or an approved change is recorded, while uncertain identities and unapproved personal details remain unchanged.

Keep in mind

Profiles contain personal information and can affect how a person is understood or treated. Use only information with an appropriate basis, verify identity and accuracy, limit access, and require an authorized human to approve every creation or update.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define profile purposes and permitted fields

Document why profiles are maintained, which details are necessary, and what information must not be collected.

Set identity, privacy, and retention rules

Choose how a person is identified, who may access the profile, and how long its details should be kept.

Assign profile owners and approvers

Name who verifies identity and data sources, approves changes, and responds to correction or removal requests.

Test lookups and proposed changes

Review a clear match, a possible duplicate, and an unsupported detail; confirm uncertain or unapproved personal data is not changed.
