Step 2: Accept a substitution request
  • The person substituting you receives an email notification.

  • By clicking on "Open Action Engine" the person will be directed directly to the Configuration page of the Action Engine.

  • In the section "Substitution for others" the new request is shown. This can be accepted or rejected.

  • In case the request is accepted, the requestor will also be notified by email and then see that their "Pending" request changes to "Approved" (respectively the same happens if the request is rejected).

  • Then the Assigned Substitute can see the Signals of the requestor for the given time period. Afterward all changes back to the regular Signal subscriptions.
