Creating Travel Authorizations as a Delegate
PeopleSoft Expenses allows authorized employees to create and submit travel authorizations on behalf of other employees. This type of employee is referred to as a delegate or proxy.
The page flow is slightly different when a delegate creates a travel authorization, whether it be for themselves or for someone else. This topic discusses that page flow.
To be a delegate for travel authorizations, you must be configured as an authorized user.
See the Setting Up Authorized Users topic to set up delegates and the employees for which they can create expense transactions.
