Configuring and Maintaining Expense Delegates

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to modify existing delegate permissions for users.

Delegate Configurations Overview

Delegate Configurations primarily define which expense reporting options a user can delegate to another user, such as creating, submitting, or approving an expense report. Most companies use a single delegate configuration, but the configuration can vary by group. You can assign a delegate configuration to one or more employee group configurations, but each employee group configuration can use only one delegate configuration.
