Note that global administrators can only delegate to other global administrators, and internal users can only delegate to other internal users. Additionally, this feature is not limited to internal users. External users, such as applicants, could designate a co-applicant to assist with the process of filling out an application on their behalf. Once a user is delegated, they will receive an email notification that they have been selected as a delegate. Once they login, the user will see a new icon in the global header that allows them to temporarily emulate another user.
