The rights you inherit from the person you are replacing are as follows:

• Companies
• Queues
• Approval rights, but it is your own signature that is used on the coding rows
• Right to see confidential invoices of the person you are replacing
• Coding rights specified on role forms
• Change coding in control after approval without losing the approval signature
• Set payment block on invoice

The substitute keeps their own search and administration rights.

How invoices are handled by substitutes is described in the article Handle invoices as a substitute.

There are two different ways to add a substitute for a user in the application.

For users
