Bronco Hub approvers can choose to delegate their action approval responsibility to another employee as needed.

  • Approval delegation is a great option when approvers are out of office.

  • Delegations can be created for a specific period or indefinitely.

Approvers must create delegation rules based on the type(s) of approval action being delegated:

  1. Financial Tasks: Expense Reports, Invoice Payments, Requisitions and Budget.

  2. Absence: Time Approval and Absence Approval.

  3. HR Manager Self Service: New hires, Re-hires, Data Change, Add Assignment, Promotion, and Salary Change.

Delegation rules are added or removed, on an individual basis, as needed. Approval delegation rules can be enabled or disabled by the existing designated approver(s). If you need to make permanent changes to approvers listed in the approval workflow matrix, submit the approval workflow maintenance form.

The Office of Continuous Improvement (OCI) and Human Resources cannot add, edit, or remove approval delegations.
