Effective Immediately, User Accounts personnel will only create a new account from a signed New Account Request Form. Even if a request for access such as FRS, HRS, or SIS is made from a "security liaison", that access will only be given when a new account has already been created via the normal departmental new account process. Should a request be made for access and no existing account be found, then User Accounts will notify the requester explaining that the department must request creation of the account before the requested access can be given. Further, User Accounts will not create an user account for UK staff members until that user has an entry within the HRS system. This includes accounts for UKCC staff members. The account can be created, at the earliest, one day after it appears in HRS. Faculty accounts may be opened prior to their appearance in HRS. Currently, the procedure is, upon receiving the normal New Account Request Form, to open the account as an EXTERNAL account and create a KEEP record that expires shortly after the date that the faculty member begins their faculty assignment. An EMAIL address, in accordance with normal KEEP record requirements, must be supplied by a departmental person responsible for the new account. Exceptions to these procedures must be approved, in writing, by an UKCC Director or Senior Manager.
