There may be times when you want to schedule delegation of tasks from your own user account to another user, or from one user to another. You can create a scheduled delegation for each type of task in your task inboxes, and define a time period during which all tasks of that type are delegated to a specified user.

The most common example is to accommodate known leaves of absence—during the time when one user is out of the office, you want to delegate those tasks to a second user for processing.
