Deleting a Substitute Approver

When a substitution is canceled, approval requests that have already been routed to the substitute are not affected by the cancellation. To re-route these requests, the substitute can access the requests and forward them to the original approver (that is, the employee for whom the substitution was created). Requests sent after the substitution is canceled are routed to the original approver.

For example, James is away on vacation and approval requests are re-routed to Rob. When James returns, he cancels the substitution and new requests are sent to him. Requests that were sent to Rob while James was away and are still waiting for approval are not automatically sent to James.
