Delegate Management in PayExpense


Temporary Delegation for Approvers and Checkers:

In some expense management systems, including PayExpense, there might be a feature for designating temporary substitutes for regular approvers or checkers. This could be particularly useful when:

  • Planned Absence: An approver or checker is unavailable due to vacation, illness, or other planned leave.
  • Unexpected Absence: An unforeseen situation prevents the designated approver or checker from fulfilling their immediate responsibilities.

New delegates can be simply assigned just by clicking on the (+) symbol near the Delegations.

How Delegation Might Work:

  • Delegate Selection: An admin or manager might be able to assign a delegate from within the organization (often another employee within the same department or someone familiar with the approval process).
  • Delegation Duration: The delegation period could be defined, allowing temporary access to approval or validation tasks for a specific timeframe.

Benefits of Delegation:

  • Uninterrupted Processing: Delegation ensures that expense reports continue to be processed even when regular approvers or checkers are unavailable.
  • Improved Efficiency: Prevents delays in expense reimbursement by designating a temporary substitute.
  • Enhanced Transparency: Employees can be informed about who is handling approvals or validations during an approver/checker's absence.
