O-6-409 Account Delegation - Access a Delegated Account

🎯 Purpose

In Dayforce, delegation allows one individual to give another individual access to their account and complete tasks under a delegation profile. This feature is designed to be used by managers who are delegating tasks to be completed by another manager during time away from work.

Common tasks completed via delegation during a manager’s absence would be: review of employee timesheets, manager-authorization of shifts worked, and entry and authorization of pay adjustments.

This process gives instructions on how a manager who has been delegated access to another manager’s account may access that account to perform tasks on behalf of the delegating manager.

🔄 Process

1. Navigate to Dayforce on a web browser. Ensure you are currently logged out of your account and then log in under your own account as you ordinarily would.

2. A pop-up will show you several options to select. To enter the delegated account under the manager role, select the employee’s manager role and click Proceed.

   

3. You will now be logged in under the delegated account and will be able to complete the required tasks delegated to you.
4. To return to your own account after entering a delegated account, you will need to log out of Dayforce completely, log in again, and choose Myself in the initial pop-up window.
