A delegating manager's task settings apply to their proxies

Why I picked it

Delegated journey work behaves the way the manager would expect, so proxies don't see more, or less, than they should.

Where it helps

A manager on leave delegates their team's onboarding tasks, and the stand-in sees the same task options the manager would.

Watch out: If the manager is also the task performer, the performer's settings win.

From Oracle's note

When a line manager delegates journeys or Journey tasks, proxies can see task behaviour aligned with the manager’s display settings. This makes delegated work more predictable while preserving the documented exception for managers who are also the task performer.

• Apply the delegating line manager’s task display settings to the proxy by default.
• If the manager is also the performer and the settings differ, the performer’s settings take precedence.
• Journey owner display settings aren’t applied to the proxy.

Set ORA_PER_JRNY_ENABLE_MANAGER_DELEGATION to Y at the user level, and ensure the delegated role includes PER_MANAGE_JOURNEY_BY_MANAGER_PRIV.
