A Chrome River Delegate can create expense reports, reconcile expenses, and request reimbursements on behalf of another user and access their Settings menu, Home Screen, and Inquiry Reports.  

The Delegate will receive copies of any email notifications regarding rejection or adjustment of reports created for the user. However, the Delegate will not be able to approve expenses that are routed to the user. More than one Delegate may be assigned, if necessary.

• When other users have authorized you to work as their Delegate, you will see their names under your name in the upper right corner.
• To the right of each user’s name, you will see the total number of their unused expense transactions and total number of their unsubmitted reports. You will not see these totals next to your own username. 
• The Approval Delegate temporarily approves expenses for another user while out of the office for an extended period of time and is different from a Delegate role.
