If you have the Multilevel Proposal (MLP) approval set up, multiple employees who are added to the MLP hierarchy of your organization can view and take action on proposals. It may happen that a person who is assigned to one of the MLP levels becomes unavailable due to sick leave, vacation, or another reason. Thus, they cannot carry out their duties of approving proposals submitted for particular locations. When you need to temporarily replace a staff member, you can allow another person to make decisions on proposals without having to upload a new MLP Levels template.

On the user profile page in the Admin module, you can assign an employee to a specific MLP level and appoint them to approve proposals submitted for particular locations. This option empowers you to add the user to the MLP hierarchy of your company in a few steps without the need to use templates. You can disable the employee’s permission to take action on MLP proposals at any time.

Note that updating the MLP approval permissions of users does not affect existing proposals or any related calculations.
