The direct answer

A website login does not control map and directory accounts. Those systems may be owned by different staff or past providers.

A practical check

List important profiles, their approved managers and recovery status. Mark inaccessible profiles as unverified rather than missing.

Choosing the next step

Arrange legitimate ownership recovery or manager access through each platform. Do not create replacement profiles casually when an existing verified record may already represent the business.
