Setting up your out-of-office indicators in EMIS Web ensures that your tasks are managed efficiently during absences, preventing workflow disruptions. Here's how you can set these indicators and designate deputies for task management:
Configure Out-of-Office Settings
To begin, access the Workflow Manager Configuration screen by selecting Workflow from the EMIS Web menu, then choose Config from the ribbon. In the User Options section on the left-hand pane, click Out of Office Settings.
- Select your availability status such as I am currently out of the office.
- If applicable, set a return date. Your deputies are automatically enabled when you indicate you are out.
Assign Deputies
Within the same Out of Office Settings screen, you can assign deputies to cover your tasks:
- Click Add under the Manage Deputies section.
- Select the user(s) from the list who will act as your deputy.
- For each deputy, assign specific modules of the Workflow Manager they can access.
Selecting appropriate deputies ensures that essential tasks continue seamlessly, enhancing both task coverage and organisational efficiency.
