This field can take three different values:
- Copy for information only: the user will receive notifications sent to the main user, but they will have no signature authority.
- With signature authority: a delegate of this type can sign instead of the main user. It should be noted that if there are several delegates of this type, and if, according to the rule, a Workflow notification should be sent to all these delegates, only the first one having decided to sign will be able to do so (the other delegates will be informed that the notification has already been signed).
- Exceptional: a delegate of this type does not receive the notifications of the main user, but they can display the notifications of the user for whom they act as delegates by accessing the workbench and selecting the code of the main user. They are then in a position to sign in their place. Usually, an exceptional delegate is a hierarchical superior who is authorized to view the pending elements of their subordinates in order to sign for them.
