When user(A) is absent, we have one option to substitute with another user(B). This substitute can display and process user(A) work items for the duration of the substitution. Substitution must be defined in advance. During absent period, substituted user(B) is able to see his own work items and absent user(A) work items.  When a period of absence is scheduled, you name a substitute and then activate the substitution. We can control whether user(B) can display and process all work items or just specific work items.
