CU Marketplace How-to: Assigning Substitute Requisition Approvers [1]
You can designate another requisition Approver as your substitute in the event you will be unable to access CU Marketplace. Once your substitute is designated, new requisitions pending your approval will instead route to your substitute. You will need to complete the approval process for any requisitions pending your approval before your substitute was assigned.
It is recommended for each SpeedType to have assigned multiple Approvers within CU Marketplace. When done, it might not be necessary to assign a substitute Approver because other individuals are already set up to approve the same requisition.
