Introduction

This article explains how to enable a PA to complete the input of their manager's expense claims within the EASY Expenses System.  There are a few stages that need to be completed before the PA can input the expense claims, and these are covered in the sections below.


This will only allow the PA to enter the expense claims.  Their manager will be required to Submit their claims for approval.

7.    Click on the spyglass to find the Delegate

8.    Search for the Delegate (PA) and click on the link of their User ID

9.    Complete the Effective From field only and click on Delegate button


10.    Complete the Declaration window and click on the Delegation button

11.    Delegated Access section will now show the Delegate


Entering Expense Claims for the Delegator

The delegator will now appear in the list of assignments available on the delegates Expense Claims screen.


1.    The Delegate (PA) logs into their user account and selects Expense Claims under the Self Service menu

2.    Click on Assignment drop down and select delegator (manager)

 

3.    Click on the Add/Edit button to enter the expense claims

Remember that the PA cannot submit the expense claims for their manager.
