If a user is required to approve a document via an approval map, is there a way he or she can reassign it to another user?   The only obvious options are Approve and Reject.

Following.  Also curious if this is possible, but under 2 scenarios.

  1. Self-Managed delegating approval while I am on vacation.
  2. Approver in one step directs the “next approval” step based on which supervisor is scheduled to work this shift.  I know this one can be done to some extent by putting them all in a workgroup, but I want the on-duty approver to get the notification where the workgroup has a static primary owner.

@brianstevens Unfortunately no one has suggested ways to accomplish this.  I’ve also come up empty asking my colleagues.  I’m assuming it can only be handled procedurally somehow.
