Configuring Delegates

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to configure Delegates in Concur Request based on CVI's business requirements.

Delegate Configurations

You'll remember from the Concur Request Business Requirements Overview unit that CVI has the following business requirements for delegates:

  • Employees with administrative assistants can have the admins create and submit requests on their behalf.
    • Their admin must live in the same country as they do.
  • Managers can delegate their approval authority if they are out of office.
    • The other manager must live in the same country as they do.
    • Approval delegation can only last 60 days or less.

Your counterpart on the expense configuration team has confirmed that their requirements are the same. You have agreed to complete the configuration.
