Assigning Substitute by third party

Hi.

As you are aware, approvers can assign substitute some one for their Shopping Cart approvals.

However some times approvers can forget to assign substitute and they leave. In this situation all the shopping carts are struck with the existing approver.

Is there any way where some one else can assign a substitute for an approver?

Something like a transaction code etc.,??

Many thanks.

Hello,

See below thread:

[Existing Approver is Replaced with New Approver|;

For few workitems to forward, use Deepti method.

To maintain substitute as an administrator, use transaction RMPS_SET_SUBSTITUTE. Be aware when using substitution, it will automatically stop with validity end date in SU01 for person to whom a substitute is given.

Regards.

Laurent.

Hi,

Go into the current approvers workload inbox using tcode swi5 and then copy the workitem number, then execute tcode swia enter the workitem id and then click the forward button and then put the approver's id to whom you want this to be sent.
