Assign Approver Delegates

When managers and other decision-makers are out of the office, you can make others "Approver Delegates" for those people. In EmpowerID, Approver Delegates are people who can approve and deny requests on behalf of someone.

Use the Approver Delegate in conjunction with the Out Of Office property for a person. To enable Approver Delegation, set Out Of Office to true on the person for whom the delegation will occur. To set this property, edit the person, select the Advanced tab, and select Out Of Office.

Assign approver delegates

  1. Navigate to the View or View One page for the person to whom you want to add an Approver Delegate. EmpowerID provides two main ways to do this. You can navigate to the page by searching for the person using the Global search bar at the top of the page (quickest), or you can navigate to the page by searching for the person using the Find Person page.



  2. On the person's View or View One page, expand the Org Chart and Relationships accordion and click the Edit link in the Approver Delegates pane.

     

  3. In the Search field that appears, enter the name of the person who is to be the Approver Delegate and then click the tile for that person.



  4. Click the Save link.
