Work Item Delegation

If enabled, work item delegation allows a participant (the delegator) to specify that another user (the delegate) to get permissions to approve tasks in the work list of the delegator. A participant can assign work items to another approver during periods when the delegator is “out of the office.” Delegators retain full access to their work items during the delegation period.

Delegation uses the following well-known attribute:

%DELEGATORS%

This well-known attribute stores the names of users who are delegating to the user with the attribute, as well as the time when the delegation was created.

Note: For more information about work item delegation, see the Administration Guide.
