Notifying delegates

If required, a delegator can receive notifications if the deputy or recipient of the single delegation has made a request in the IT Shop. Notification is sent once an employee has been determined as an approver due to delegation and has made an approval decision for the request.

To send notification when the employee who was delegated an approval approves or denies the request

  • In the Designer, set the QER | ITShop | Delegation | MailTemplateIdents | InformDelegatorAboutDecisionITShop configuration parameter.

    By default, a notification is sent with the Delegation - inform delegator about decided request mail template.

TIP: To use custom mail templates for emails of this type, change the value of the configuration parameter.

Delegations are taken into account in the following default approval procedures.

Example

Jon Blogs is responsible for the R1 business role. He delegates his responsibility for the business role to Clara Harris. Clara Harris is herself responsible for R2 business role.

A member of the R1 business role requests a product in the IT Shop. Jon Bloggs is established as an approver through the OM - Manager of a specific role approval process. The request is assigned to Clara Harris for approval through delegation. Jon Blogs is notified as soon as Clara Harris has made her approval decision.

A member of the R2 business role requests a product in the IT Shop. Clara Harris is established as the approver through the OM - Manager of a specific role approval process. No notification is sent because Clara Harris does not make the approval decision due to delegation.

Bulk delegation

You have the option to delegate all your responsibilities to one person in the Web Portal. If you have a lot of responsibilities, it is possible that not all the delegations are carried out. A delegator can send a notification to themselves if an error occurs.
