Good to Know

• Types that don't need approval, such as sick leave, are approved as soon as they're asked for.
• Someone with no manager goes straight to HR. Nobody decides their own request.
• When an approver is on leave or has left, their requests go to their own manager, then HR.
• A change applies to new requests. Requests already waiting keep their steps.
• On Enterprise, choose a Custom chain of up to five steps.

If Something Goes Wrong

• Requests go to the wrong person. Check each person's Manager on their page in People.
• Approvers get too many emails. Each approver can turn off the daily summary in their own notification settings.
