Expert writing Tips
Best practice
Use "as requested" or "upon request" instead of "under requested" for clarity and grammatical correctness.
Common error
Avoid using "under" with "requested" to mean "as a result of a request". "Under" typically describes a state or condition, not the impetus for an action. Using "as requested" or "upon request" clearly conveys that something is done because it was asked for.
