What is a Delegate?
Figure 17 - Delegate Tab on Desktop Device
Delegates can act on behalf of those that assigned them as a delegate (usually in their absence), performing certain actions within viaOne express. For example, an executive goes out of town and wants an assistant to manage their associates during the absence. The executive adds the assistant as a delegate so the assistant can act on behalf of the executive.
• On desktop devices: Delegate feature is available from the Delegate tab on the top of each page.
• On mobile devices: Delegate feature is available from the Delegate links from the navigation menu at the top right of the screen
Figure 16 - Delegate Links on Mobile Device
Note: This feature is available only to users with the proper authority, such as supervisors or managers. You may assign multiple delegates, as needed. You may only act as a delegate when another supervisor or manager has assigned you as their delegate.

When you manage delegates, you can:
Add someone as your delegate (if not already selected).
Extend the period for which the associate may act as your delegate.
Grant or deny the delegate’s permissions.
Remove someone as your delegate.
Managing Delegates
You can assign delegates or remove associates from your list of delegates from the Manage My Delegates page. You can assign multiple delegates if needed.
See the next page for instructions on how to manage your delegates.
What are permissions? Permissions are the functions that you can allow or prevent a delegate from performing. Delegates can only perform the functions granted to them when they act as your delegate. You can grant or deny the following permissions:
Report intermittent absence: If granted, the delegate can report an intermittent absence for you and your associates.
Length of time a delegate has remaining: If granted, the delegate can extend the delegation period (the amount of time before delegation privileges expire). Delegation periods are 365 days.
Report new claim: If granted, the delegate can report a new claim for you and your associates.
Note: All permissions are granted by default, so if you want a delegate to be limited, you must edit their permissions from the Manage My Delegates or Manage Other Delegates pages. Remove associates as your delegates when the privilege is no longer needed.

Walmart PTO ToolUpdated viaOne ExpressApril 2018
PTO Tool
• Sedgwick has introduced a new PTO tool within viaOne express titled the PTO Usage Screen.
• This tool will give you a snapshot of the PTO salaried associates have used each pay period while out on leave. It will help with managing salaried PTO usage as well as answering pay questions that may arise.
• The next slides will give you directions on how to locate and read this new tool.
2
PTO ToolDirections for locating the PTO Usage tool:1. Log into viaOne express (WIRE->Me@Walmart->Time Off Center->viaOne
Express) and load your dashboard.
3
PTO ToolDirections for locating the PTO Usage tool:2. Search for an associate using Case/Claim Search function or open an
associate’s claim listed under Associates Off Work. You may also click on advance search and search by WIN.
4
PTO ToolDirections for locating the PTO Usage tool:3. Once the associate’s information is loaded, click the Paid Time Off (PTO) link
on the right hand side of the screen.
5
PTO Tool• PTO Usage Tool is listed below. This tool will outline the number of PTO days
used in each pay period an associate is off of work and why those PTO days are used while the associate is out on leave. This is updated by Sedgwick.

PTO Tool
Items to Note:• Generally the PTO Effective and PTO Expires dates correspond to the dates of the leave.
• You should review the associate’s Initial Balance to ensure the associate has the amount of PTO available for their election while out on a leave of absence.
• Call Sedgwick to report any changes to the associate’s PTO balance as an incorrect amount can be pay impacting.
• The PTO Usage Tool only monitors PTO used while out on a leave. PTO used outside of a leave of absence managed by Sedgwick, will not be reflected on this tool.
• If you have any questions regarding this tool, please contact Sedgwick or [email protected] .
8
PTO Tool
Additional Items to Note: • There are two types of PTO: EVENT and CROSS.
– EVENT = Normal PTO Bucket
– CROSS = Indicates the associate is using PTO from the new PTO bucket when a leave crosses over 2/1 each year.
• In a crossover claim/case, the PTO Expire column, for rows marked as EVENT, will always show an expiration date of 1/31 as this is the date the PTO bucket expires for the associate.
• In the CROSS row, the PTO Expire date will be listed as the last date of the absence, in which PTO can be applied for that case/claim.
• If an associate has PTO leftover from their old PTO bucket, these days will be carried over and added to their new PTO bucket for use after 2/1.

PTO Tool
Let’s review three scenarios you can expect to encounter and how the PTO Usage Tool will be populated for each of these
scenarios.
10
PTO ToolSCENARIO 1:• Associate requests STD claim and elected 24 days of PTO at intake.• 6 days of PTO are used for scheduled days in the Waiting Period. • The last 5 days of the STD claim are denied and 5 PTO days are used to cover that time. • Before associate RTW from STD claim, on 5/19, their mother passes away and they report bereavement leave, after the
3 scheduled days paid by Walmart, and elect 20 days of PTO for this absence.
