What is Approval Delegation?

Question:

• How do I delegate Requests to another Approver?
• Can I have another Approver approve my Requests?
• Are bill and payments included in Approval delegation? 

Answer:

Approval Delegation provides Approvers with the ability to allow their pending and incoming approvals to be processed by another Approver - for a given period of time. This might be used if an Approver goes on vacation and needs their approvals managed while they are away.

• Please note, that approval delegation only works for Order/Expense/Travel.
• A Superuser or user with permissions to Settings and Manage Users can manage Approval Delegation for all users. It is also possible to delegate your own approvals. 
• Approval Delegation must be manually turned off. Delegation does not turn off automatically, even if a date range is set.
