Enable Single Task Delegations

Enable Single Task Delegations

Security:
Set Up: Tenant Setup - BP and Notifications
 domain in the System functional area.
You can enable users to delegate a single task to another user at their own discretion or you can require that the delegation request is reviewed before taking effect.
  1. Access the
    Edit Tenant Setup - Business Processes
     task.
    Select at least 1 option in the
    Users Can Delegate Tasks To
     prompt.
    Tenant delegation settings apply only to users requesting delegation on behalf of themselves and not to role-based or user-based security groups who request delegation on behalf of others.
  2. From the related actions menu of a business process you want to enable for delegation, select
    Business Process Policy
     >
    Edit
    .
    In the
    Policy Restrictions
     section, select the
    Allow Business Process Delegation
     check box.
  3. (Optional) Require approval for single task delegations before they take effect.
    When a user delegates a single task from their My Tasks, Workday initiates the
    Delegate Task
     business process. Configure the
    Delegate Task (Default Definition)
     business process to include an
    Approval
     step on the business process definition.
