Manage Pending Invites

  • Resend invite: People → Invited → Resend

  • Edit before they accept: Cancel the invite → re-invite with corrected details


Common Issues & Fixes

  • Duplicate email → The user already exists or has a pending invite. Cancel or use another email.

  • Invalid email format → Correct the address (e.g., missing @ or domain).

  • Phone number rejected → Use full international format with country code.

  • Role missing in CSV → Add a valid role or set a default role.
