7.3.5 Delegating Endorsement

The delegate feature in the endorsement cycle allows users to reassign their task to another resource for the current cycle. If a new endorsement cycle begins, the original endorser will revert back to being the endorser, and the delegated endorser will be removed from the list.

How to Delegate an Endorsement Cycle

1. Click on the ‘Delegate’ button within the ‘Pending Endorsement’ action box.
   
2. Search for the resource you want to delegate to and select it in the dropdown.
   
3. After saving, the delegated resource will become the endorser for this cycle.

Rules for Delegation

1. Resource Eligibility:
   • An endorser cannot delegate to a resource that has been deleted or disabled.
   • Delegation cannot be made to a resource already participating in the endorsement cycle.
2. Communication Status:
   • The previous endorser will not be receiving emails and notification after they delegated their task to the new resource.
3. Displayed Content Limitations:
   • Endorsers with content displayed on ‘Published’ can only select published resources.
   • Endorsers with content displayed on ‘Latest’ can select any resource available.
