# Lock and Unlock

\
Lock&#x20;
----------

On Social Registry (SR), the lock feature is pivotal in preventing data from being multiple edits.  When the records are loaded on SR, the limit is set to edit the data only once. If the records are edited once, then the particular records will be locked.&#x20;

## Unlock

The locked records are unlocked for the next edit only. In order to re-edit the record, the user must send a request to Super Admin to unlock the record with a valid reason.\
\
Super Admin validates the user request to unlock the record. After validating, he/she approves/rejects the request to edit the record.

Once the Super Admin approves the request, the user can edit the record. The rejected request remains locked.

## Notification

On Social Registry, if there are corrections in the records, then a Super Admin user will send a push and an email notification to the user.  The user is notified about the information of a record that needs correction.

## Log

The log captures  the information of change in status of the records, user requesting for unlock, edit details, notification sent for the records, approval/rejection of a request.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.openg2p.org/~/changes/xKUM0sBXFkyR8F24yAMq/social-registry/functionality/lock-and-unlock.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
