I am trying to find a company that is using Lawson Manager Self Service (v9.0.1) and has figured out a way to set up a proxy supervisor.

We have a number of managers, director and VPs who do not fill out employment changes paperwork. It tends to be an admin assistant who does it. We are looking at rolling out some of the Personnel Actions via MSS.  We are trying to figure out how to set up a Proxy user who is not a direct supervisor or upline and would be able to complete the PA in MSS.

Has anyone been able figure out a way to set this up?

Are you using Lawson Talent Management (LTM). I know the LTM has the proxy management piece but not sure about just the S3 side.

I know a K-12 school district client who does this be creating a "secretary" Lawson ID for each school principal. The secretary ID is tied to the principal's employee number in Lawson security and has access to only the few tasks they need.

The secretaries are not thrilled about having two different IDs, but it works. You will want to be sure to test out all the drill-around info from the forms these proxy's have access to. If you're not careful, they could have access to a lot of employee info that you don't want them to see.

Patty - we are not using LTM - we are on the S3 platform.

Karen - thank you for the comments. That is the route we are thinking of going. But wondered if there were any other options out there.
