Assigning an Alternate Time Approver

Approvers and managers are assigned in Bullhorn Time & Expense to audit and approve employee time, expenses, PTO, and other data (units, projects, UDFs, etc.). Agency-designated approvers are emailed a link to the Approval Application. No username or password is required.

If you are a designated approver, you may need to set an alternate approver to act in your place while you are out of the office. Follow the steps below to set an alternate approver from the Approval Application.

1. From inside the Approval Application, click Alternate Approver in the upper right hand corner.

   • End Date: The date the alternate approver should stop.
