Selecting an Alternate Reviewer

There will be times when a user is out of the office during the budget review process. To ensure that the budget review does not stop when a reviewer is unavailable, an administrator or user can select an alternate reviewer to take care of review responsibilities while the user is away. Use the Out of Office Assistant to return review responsibilities to users when they return.

  1. Select Tools, and then Manage Approvals.

    • Promote

    • Reject

    • Delegate

    • Submit

  5. Select an alternate reviewer from Select Next Owner.

  6. Optional: Enter an annotation.

  7. When the user returns, clear I am currently out of the office.

  8. Click Save.
