Hi, could one of the profile managers also add the project profile [email address removed] as active manager (add to trusted list, save, then activate, then save again) to this profile, please? As soon as the LNAB has been validated with a [transcription of a] baptism [image], we will have this profile Project Profile Protected). Philip (project research coordinator)
