Assigning Substitute Approvers

If you will be out of the office and wish to have someone else approve transactions, you can designate another approver as your substitute. To designate another approver as your substitute, use the menu on the left and go to Orders -> Approvals -> Assign Substitute Approvers. This designation may be provided to different individuals if you approve multiple departments.

If you are an approver for multiple types of documents (ie. Requisitions, Payment Requests, Invoices, Contracts), use the dropdown on the left to filter which folders you want to assign a substitute. Click the Assign button next to the folder and in the pop up window, type in/search for the user you wish to be your substitute. You can also select the checkbox at the top to enter a date range that will apply to this specific substitution. Click the Assign button to confirm your selection. The above steps must be completed prior to entering any transaction in Paw in which a substitute approver is needed.
