Q: I will be out of the office on vacation, and I am the fiscal officer on many accounts. Can I set up someone else to approve e-docs while I am out?
A: Yes, you can use the delegation functionality in KFS. By making someone a delegate, you authorize them to approve eDocs on your behalf. You can limit it to certain eDocs and/or accounts, and even put a limit on the dollar amounts that they are allowed to approve. As fiscal officer, you are still ultimately responsible for the account’s activity. If a delegate approves an eDoc, the route log will display both the delegate’s name as the Approver, and the fiscal officer’s name as the Delegator.
