before vacation or is out sick or on disability is have the uer’s manager
submit a service desk ticket requesting a sub be created. This is routed to
workflow support where I use function module RH_SUBSTITUTES_LIST to create a
subsitute for the period of time required. The service ticket is the audit
trail for me creating the sub thru the backdoor…..this also doesn’t
compromise any of the HR org structure as well.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

In my company we are using SAP 4.7 and I insist on using substitution
but they are not using that because of authorization issue as we need to change
the authorization of the substitute. Instead what they do is simply attach the
user to the position and do a user reconciliation so that all the workflow's
will be received by both the actual approver and substitute. What is the risk
involved in this and how could i convenience the users to use substitution. As
mentioned by the other consultants, most of the time the approver leaves for
vacation without doing substitution and the substitute will ask as to do this
user attachment. Please advice.<br>
<br>

<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>I have
a colleague looking a future Duet functionality, and they are wondering how
much customers use substitution in general, and which ones use classification
of tasks. With tasks classification you can classify your tasks,
and then include them in a subsitution profile. This way substitutes only
get certain tasks.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>I've
told them that substitution is heavily used -but I'm not sure about task
classification. Would you mind letting me know how much you use task
classification? And, if you don't use the substitution provided by
workflow - do you use something else?</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
