Validation Rules

Required Fields

At least one field (telefono, direccion, or img_perfil) must be provided in the request body

Pending Requests

Employees cannot create a new profile update request if they already have one pending approval

​
Business Logic

1

Validate Input

System checks that at least one field is provided
2

Check Existing Requests

Verifies the employee doesn’t have a pending profile update request
3

Create Request

Creates a new request (type 5) with proposed changes stored in a separate table
4

Admin Approval

Request enters pending state awaiting administrator approval
5

Apply Changes

Upon approval, the proposed changes are applied to the employee’s profile

​
Data Storage

The proposed changes are stored in a separate table (actualizacion_perfil) linked to the main request: 
// Proposed data structure
{
  id_solicitud: 234,
  datos_propuestos: {
    telefono: '+1234567890',
    direccion: '456 New Street, City, State',
    img_perfil: 'https://example.com/images/new-profile.jpg'
  }
}

Approve Profile Update

PUT /api/solicitudes/:id/aprobarAdmin approves the request and applies changes to employee profile

Reject Profile Update

PUT /api/solicitudes/:id/rechazarAdmin rejects the request without applying changes

​

// Update only phone number
{
  "telefono": "+1234567890"
}

// Update only address
{
  "direccion": "789 Another St, City"
}

// Update phone and address, keep current image
