Automatic escalation if the manager is absent

What should I do if a manager is absent when dealing with absences?

When a direct line manager is absent, the system can automatically escalate all of the line manager approval requests to the next line manager(s) in the chain.

You can disable or limit the escalation rules within global settings by specifying whether a threshold for a certain number of absent days must be met.

This establishes a protocol that goes into place automatically if the line manager is ill. Before setting off this escalation, specify whether a certain number of days threshold must be met.

You can choose whether this is only triggered by a single absent line manager or if no line managers are available. This option will depend on how integrated different parts of your organisation are.
