In this section, you have the option to delegate responsibilities to another user for a specified period. Even if the chosen user does not possess the necessary rights, they will inherit all the rights from the delegator for the duration of the delegation.
The overview displays all delegations within the chosen time frame. The default start date for the time range is today's date. A delegation will appear if its start or end date falls within the selected time range.
- Past delegations are not removable, but their details are accessible.
- Active delegations can be deactivated or have their end date modified, but cannot be deleted.
- Upcoming delegations may be edited or removed.
- The "Responsibilities" section displays the rights that have been delegated.
Once you deactivate an ongoing delegation, you cannot reactivate it by editing the end date. A message will indicate that the delegation is deactivated.
When setting up a new delegation, you must select the specific delegator from the drop-down menu. Based on the rights of the chosen person, the relevant responsibilities to be delegated will appear. If the individual is an attestor in multiple attest groups, you will need to specify which attest groups are to be delegated.
The delegatee will also be selected from the drop-down list, and then the duration of the delegation. Creating the delegation will automatically give the attest rights to the user for the selected period, even if that user does not have the specific role assigned.
Please be aware that as an attestor, you are permitted to delegate only to those employees within your attest group who are also part of the same company. Delegations at the corporate level must be established by client administrators.
The delegation setup will check whether the user will be active during the delegation period, otherwise, the delegation cannot be configured.
When going to Employee-->HR-->Employees-->Login tab (login tab view needs certain access rights for end-users) for an employee that is also a delegatee, the delegated privileges, duration, and the delegator will be displayed under the existing assigned roles for that employee.
The delegatee will receive an email with the same details as the one displayed in the UI.
