The My Proxy Assignments action allows you to view and define proxy assignments. To define proxy assignments, you must have the appropriate authority, as follows:
The User Application Administrator has the ability to define proxy assignments for any user in the organization.
An Organizational Manager has the ability to define proxy settings only for users within his scope of authority. The scope of authority is defined as the members of the group that report directly to the manager and the manager himself. The proxies themselves must also be within the manager’s scope of authority.
If an Organizational Manager needs to select a proxy who is not within his/her scope, he/she must request that the User Application Administrator (or the Organizational Manager for the desired proxy) define the proxy relationship.
NOTE:Task Group Managers and users without administrative privileges are not permitted to define proxy assignments.
Click My Proxy Assignments in the My Settings group of actions.
The user application displays your current settings. The proxy assignments displayed are those that specify you as proxy for someone else, as well as those that specify someone else as proxy for you.
If you are not an Organizational Manager or the User Application Administrator, you see a read-only view of your proxy assignments:
If you have administrative privileges, you are provided with a user interface that lets you create and edit proxy assignments.
NOTE:If you are an Organizational Manager, you are not able to edit a proxy assignment that defines you as a proxy for someone outside of your team. Only the User Application Administrator or the user that created this proxy assignment can modify this assignment.
