# How Does a User Delegate a Request in Intapp?

### **Overview**

Users may occasionally need to **delegate a Request** in Intapp—for example, when they are going on leave, transferring responsibility, or need another team member to complete workflow actions on their behalf. Intapp provides a built‑in delegation feature that allows a user to assign a Request to another authorised user.<https://whu58480-my.sharepoint.com/personal/lindsay_barthram_actusverto_com/Documents/Microsoft%20Copilot%20Chat%20Files/How%20Does%20A%20User%20Delegate%20A%20Request%20%E2%80%93%20Stickleback%20Technologies.pdf>

### 🧩 **What Delegation Does**

Delegating a Request allows another user to:

- Progress the Request through workflow stages
- Complete required intake fields
- Approve, review, or return items depending on permissions
- Act temporarily “on behalf of” the original owner

Delegation **does not** remove ownership; it simply enables another user to take action.

---

### 🛠️ **How to Delegate a Request**

### **Step 1 — Open the Request**

Locate and open the Request you want to delegate. The delegation options appear within the Request options menu.

---

### **Step 2 — Select the Delegate Option**

From the menu (typically under *More* or within the header options), choose **Delegate**.  
This opens the delegation modal or sidebar where you can choose a user.

---

### **Step 3 — Choose the User to Delegate To**

Search for the colleague who will be handling the Request.  
You can select any user who has the necessary system permissions to progress the workflow.

---

### **Step 4 — Confirm Delegation**

Click **Delegate** or **OK** to finalise the action.  
The Request will now show the delegated user in the relevant section of the interface. 

---

### 📝 **Important Notes**

- Delegation permissions are controlled by your Intapp role.
- The delegated user receives the Request and can action it immediately.
- Delegation can be removed by the original user or by re‑delegating to someone else.
- Delegation applies per Request, not globally across all user workload.
