Delegated access for assistants

WX delegated access is supported through the HR Manager Portal:

  • The Roles tab.

    Roles are used to map assistants to managers for defined processes.

    You can add the Roles tab to your display by using the Customize your nav bar edit pencil at the right of your tabs.

  • Assistant To and Assisted By Related Lists displayed on the Team Member detail page.

    You can add these Related Lists to your display selecting Setup, then Edit Object. On the object details page, select Page Layouts, and then select the layout to edit.

Assistants are granted access to the defined manager's view of the processes included in the Role.

WX processes supporting delegated access for assistants include:

  • HR Requests (for employment change requests using People Management Workflow)

  • Time Off

  • Timesheets

Guidelines:

  • By default, to set up WX delegated access you need Administrator level access to the HR Manager Portal.

  • Users with HR Manager level access can define assistant assignments but they cannot define the processes for a role.

  • You can restrict each role to a single process, for example, Time Off. Restricting the number of processes makes it easier to manage role assignment, for example:

    • Use one C-level Time Off Assistant role to map all C-level managers to one or more Executive Assistants for delegating absence approval when managers are not available.

    • Use one South Africa PAF Assistant role to map all employment change requests originating from regional managers to a single senior assistant during a reorganization.

To set up delegated access:

  1. Define the role.

    Each role enables you to map managers to assistants for defined processes.

  2. Add the processes you want to include for the role.

  3. Add managers and assistants you want to use the role.
