Does the member being reviewed receive an email letting them know that they were approved or declined? If so, what does that look like?
Nataly,
When a member is approved, an email notification is sent to the member. However, on a declined renewal, it is NOT sent to the member - this conversation must happen pursuant to MC policies. Please see the last few pages of the attached document for a matrix of which emails are sent to which positions and when.
Hope this helps!
