Check out all the authorisation rules in Authorisation Workflow. This is where you can view who approves an employee's request of any type such as holiday, expense, timesheet.
If you haven't assigned an authorisation rule to your employee for their request type or if their manager or a system admin made the request and you don't have a rule for this scenario, then their request auto-approves.
No rules assigned
To identify who you didn't assign an authorisation rule, follow the steps below:
In Settings, click Authorisations.
Click Transaction.
Click No rules Assigned. This shows a list of employees who have their requests auto-approved, for that certain request type
If you can't find any holiday authorisation rules, it might be because the default rule was deleted in error, and this can cause your employees' holidays to be auto-approved.
If you don't have the multi-authorisation workflow licence to create it again, raise a new case online and reference the title of this article.
Set request to auto-approve
To set someone to auto-approve, follow the steps below:
In Settings, click Authorisations.
Click Transaction.
Locate the rule the employee is currently assigned to and on the right of that row, click the eye icon.
Use the Exclude Employee(s) filter to exclude this employee from the rule.
Click Save.
