B2. Intake: accepting a marketplace request
When a public user applies from the marketplace, the request waits in Marketplace requests. Only the Platform Super Administrator can accept or decline it.
Task B2.1: Accept a marketplace request for review
Who can do this: Platform Super Administrator only, with fresh sign-in.
Before you start
- Read the request in full before you decide.
Steps
- Sign in to the staff portal and open the notification bell. Select the new request notification, or open Marketplace requests from the menu.
- In the list, select the row for the request. For this example, it is Hauwa Musa's request from the Zaria Grain Growers Cooperative.
- Read the request: the applicant, the amount, the ticket, the instrument, the state and the facility window.
- Optional: type a short internal note, such as "Eligible cooperative in Kaduna".
- Select Accept for review.
- If asked, sign in again. The system shows Request approved.
What happens next
- A finance application is created at the stage Eligibility review.
- Hauwa is notified in the app, by email and by browser notification (if she has allowed it) that her request has been accepted for review.
- The application appears in the Finance applications register.
Declining a request
- Select Decline instead.
- Type the Decision note (required to decline). You cannot decline without it.
- Select Decline to confirm. The applicant is told in the app, by email and by push.
Common problems
- The buttons are missing: your account is not the Platform Super Administrator. Ask Adaeze Okafor or your administrator.
- "Request approved" appears but no application shows: refresh the Finance applications register. If it still does not appear, contact your administrator and quote the request reference.
