As part of its efforts to help employees maintain a good work-life balance, the Wellbeing Strategy Group wants to provide employees with helpful tools and tips that can make switching off easier, especially when taking time away for annual leave.

One of the challenges to switching off raised to the Group was the build-up of an employee’s SAP Workflow when they are away. But did you know you can redirect your workflow to a nominated person, so they can manage it while you are off?

With thanks to IT for their support, we can share a step-by-step guide to doing this. The guide has been tested by members of the Group – with two key points to note:

• The person you nominate must have authorisation to approve invoices/workflow items
• They will also need to know the applicable cost centre and GL codes

Use this guide before you go away, and hopefully you will return to fewer emails in your inbox, and items in your workflow!

The guide can be found on the UK News download page:  SAP Workflow Substitution Guide (1260 downloads)
