# Away Mode

## Overview

If you want to disconnect for a while (vacation, parental leave, or similar), you can use the away mode to delegate the review and approval of Skovik reports to a colleague. Note that away mode only applies when you, as an individual, are assigned to review a particular report. If you review reports as part of a group, your stand-in won't replace your group membership. Instead, the person approving in your place has to be added to the group in question.

This feature has to be activated by the Skovik support. Reach out to <support@skovik.com> to request activation.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## Delegate reports to a colleague

* Go to **Settings -> Away mode.**
* Choose a colleague and set the duration.
* For this duration, new reports that require your approval will be sent to the chosen colleague instead. You should choose a person suited to review reports in your place.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Remember to clear any reports pending review before you leave. Only new reports will be reassigned, and existing reports are not affected.
