Choose a user to receive another user’s approval requests over a predefined time
period. Delegated approvers are helpful when the original approver can’t respond to approvals,
such as during a vacation. Only users can be delegated approvers; a group can’t
be a delegated approver. (Salesforce CPQ Managed Package)
Required Editions
Available in: Salesforce CPQ Summer ’16 and later with Advanced Approvals 3.1 and
later
In the Delegated Approver field, enter the user record of the user you want to
delegate.
Specify the delegation period in the Delegate Start and Delegate End
fields.
These fields are required. The period begins at 12:00 AM on the delegate start date and
ends at 11:59 PM on the delegate end date.
If the delegated approver hasn’t worked with Advanced Approvals before, make sure you
configure Salesforce to give the approver the required permissions to view approvals. After you
set up the delegated approver, make sure that they have the Approve and Reject buttons on the
approval objects page layout and that they have permissions to approve or reject an
approval.
