Follow requests from people who also report to you
A second manager can read the requests, tasks and timesheets of shared reports, but cannot decide them.
For: Managers & HR · Category: Leave & approvals
Some people report to more than one manager. If you are the second manager, you can follow their work so you stay in the picture. You can read it, but only the approvers in the chain can decide a request.
Steps
- Open the Team requests tab: Go to My Space -> Approvals and choose Team requests. The tab appears when someone who also reports to you has a request.
- Read the banner: Each request shows a Read only banner that says: This person also reports to you. You can follow the request here; only the approvers in its chain can decide it.
- Find their tasks and timesheets: You can also see the tasks of the people who also report to you, and read their timesheets.
Tips
- Owners, admins and HR set who approves in My Space -> Approvals -> Configure Workflows.
- If nobody has a request, the tab says there are no requests.
