   For Indonesian businesses, contact Support for help downgrading a user to a Developer role.

### **The admin user has yet to confirm the downgrade access request, what should I do?**

If you are an Admin and you need to downgrade another Admin's user access immediately, please contact our Support Team. Kindly [**sign and provide a letter**](https://support.aspireapp.com/hubfs/Letter%20to%20Downgrade%20User%20Access%20Template.docx?hsLang=en) confirming the change in the user's role, so our team can manually process it for you.

In case the Admin is no longer a director, please include an updated Certificate of Registration as well.
