If selected, and no date range is entered in the From Date and To Date fields, all pending requests are updated with the alternate approver for the selected original approver.

If selected, and a date range is entered in the From Date and To Date fields, all pending requests are updated with the alternate approver for the selected original approver if today’s date falls on or between the from and to dates.

If selected, and a date range is entered in the From Date and To Date fields, and today’s date is outside the range of the from and to dates, no updates occur for the selected original approver.
