Updated Supervisor Approver Process

The process for setting up a Supervisor Approver has been recently updated.

Departments have the option of adding the appropriate Supervisor Approver to the Employee's Concur profile in accordance with any internal/department procedures. Adding a Supervisor Approver is optional and it provides departments with additional control and visibility to the Request and Expense process. If there is a Supervisor Approver listed in the Employee's Profile, the Concur document will route for Supervisor Approval first before entering the standard approval workflow.

Before the update, the person who you selected as your Supervisor Approver could only be chosen if they were already set up as a Concur approver under a specific Financial Unit, but that is no longer the case. Any UCSD employee with an active Concur account can be added as a Supervisor Approver.
