Hi All,
 
When performing this type of substitution does the person you have selected
get all the authorizations as well?

Well said Namit, on the same token, it is easier to just give the
personal
substitute. Sometimes there are users who hold various positions and if 
you
substitute per position, you have to activate and de-activate per
position. Not
very efficient. Personal Substitute is simple and easy to activate and
 
de-activate. Just my 2 cents.

Delegation Rules (Out of Office feature of SAP R/3)
Maintaining substitutes
In  the  Business Workplace, choose Settings ® Workflow settings ®
Maintain
substitute.
The Maintain substitute dialog box appears.
To  facilitate  maintenance  of  the substitution, the Personal
substitutes
entry  and  the  positions you occupy are displayed in the hierarchy on 
the
Maintain  substitutes  screen.  You  specify  your  substitute  either
as a
personal substitute or as a position-related substitute.
 
Personal substitute
A  personal  substitute  can see and execute all your work items,
including
those assigned to you via a personal agent assignment. You can only
specify
one other user as a personal substitute.
 
Position-related substitute
A  position-related  substitute can only see and execute the work items 
you
have  received  on  the basis of agent assignment at the level of
position,
job  or  organizational unit. You can enter another position or a user
as a
position-related  substitute.  Position  the  cursor  either  on  the
entry
Personal  substitutes  or  on  the  relevant  position,  and  select
Create
substitute.
 
You can maintain existing entries by double-clicking on the relevant
entry.
 
If you want to maintain a position-related substitution, decide whether 
you
want  another  position  or  another  user  as  a substitute. Select
either
position  or user as the substitute type and specify the number or the
user
name of the substitute.
 
Specify  the  validity period for the substitution on the detail screen 
for
substitution.  Only  within  this  period  can  the  substitute  adopt
the
substitution.
 
Specify a substitute profile in the dialog box Detail screen
substitution.
Irrespective  of  whether you have created your substitute as a
personal or
position-related  substitute,  you  can  limit  the scope of the work
items
displayed to your substitute by specifying a substitute profile.
Select the field Substitution active if applicable.
 
You must activate the substitution if you want work items to be visible 
for
the  substitute  automatically  from  now  on.  If  you do not activate 
the
substitution,  the substitute must adopt the substitution explicitly to 
see
your work items.
 
Save your entries and exit substitute maintenance.
 
Activating substitutes
In  the  Business Workplace, choose Settings ® Workflow settings ®
Activate
substitute.
The Activate substitute dialog box appears.
Select  the  substitutes that you want to activate, and choose the
function

Adopt
substitution.
The Choose substitution dialog box appears.
Select the user(s) for which you want to adopt substitution.
Exit the dialog box.

Sorry, I forgot to say what vers. -> 4.6C.
 
Does anyone know where I can find some sort of a quick reference guide
to setup substitution?
I want to give our User Support folks a how-to guide so they can walk
the users through
this process.
