Alternate Approver Functionality

How do I set up an alternate approver, and will the original approver still be able to approve the action? 

Workflow Business Rules 

A user is out of the office intermittently and needs their workflow forwarded when they cannot approve a transaction.

To set up an alternate approver in workflow business rules

1. Go to System Administration > Workflow Administration > Workflow Business Rules
2. Click Search and enter the information for the business rule you want to update
3. Click Update and then select Alt Approver
4. In the dropdown menu select the approver that you want the workflow to be forwarded to.
   1. If the user is not on the list they will need to be promoted to approver following these steps: Unable to add user to a business rule
5. Enter the amount of time the original approver has before the approval is forwarded to the alternate approver
6. Accept

Once the workflow is forwarded to the alternate approver the original approver will no longer be able to approve the action.
