17. What you really need to know! The approver needs to approve time for the employee to be paid. The approver needs to delegate to someone with approver access. The hourly employee can check if time has been approved and remind supervisor as needed. Call or email your business manager or Human Resources/Payroll for help.

20. Delegating approver status! The substitute cannot be a subordinate of the original approver. A peer or superior of the original approver should be used as a substitute. Substitutes can be created up to 180 days in advance of the begin date and end automatically on the end date entered by the approver. Creating a substitute will not give that person access to the original approver’s workflow inbox, and substitutes do not have the ability to complete requests originally sent to the original approver. Only the substitute approver will receive any new workflow notifications that are generated during the substitution period. If an approver is responsible for more than one type of request (leave, travel, or time), different substitutes can be chosen for each type of request.
