Manage Substitutes

Workflow Substitutes make it possible to setup workflows where one user can act on the behalf of another user. When creating a workflow, each status tracked workflow step must have a "Doer" and one "Responsible". But what happens if one of the user associated with a Doer or Responsible role cannot fulfill the work associated with the workflow? For example, the Responsible is on vacation or similar, and cannot approve the budget for a cost center. Using the Workflow Substitutes function, you can assign another user the same rights as the original user in the workflow.
