A new record appears in the tabbed table for Work delegated to others.

Tip: Hover over any of the column headings in the table and select the filter icon

to filter delegates by value, date or text (example: Use a text filter of Contains, and Change to filter out only the records containing delegations for Change Requests). You can also sort your delegate records in the table by selecting the up/down arrow

next to any of the column headings.

Select Hide expired records on the Work delegated to others tab to hide all completed and canceled delegations on this tab.

Select a row and double-click on it, or select View records to search for all the records for that particular Business Object that are assigned to that user.

Note: If you select View records for a single Business Object delegation (example: Incident), you are taken straight to the Search Results list/grid. You see a dialog titled, for example, Incidents delegated to Andrew Smith. If you select View records for an All Business Objects delegation, before being taken to the Search Results, you are asked to choose the object you want to view the records for.
