Out of Office Functionality
About
An approver in a workflow path can nominate an alternate approver for a specified period on the Out of Office Settings Screen. This will enable the alternate approver to action workflow items on behalf of the manager during the specified period. Once the period elapses, all new workflow items will automatically revert to the original manager for approval.
The Company Level User can also set-up the nominated approver on the employee’s Out of Office Screen.
