Alternate Roles Issue

I have the Alternate Roles feature implemented. I know the settings are OK because it works as described for an initial registration submission.

However, I would like to have the field that determines the Role setting to be an Admin only field set to default to “Pending” (the other value is “Approved” and is the value that would change the role). Therefore on initial submission the role would be the one set in the Formidable Registration Settings. When an Admin edits the field and changes it to “Approved” I would expect the Role to change to the new one defined in the Alternate Role Settings but it does not.

Is this designed to only work on initial form submission and not on Updates or am I doing something wrong?
