Revised CUNYfirst Procurement User Access Request form

GUIDE TO COMPLETION

This is a required form to establish and/or change security access to the CUNYfirst "Financials Supply Chain" pillar, which grants system users the capability to purchase Tax Levy or Non-Tax Levy funded goods or services.  

The completed form must be requested by the employee's manager and submitted to IT Security in NA 1/301.  

Employees may not request access for themselves without appropriate approvals.  

For transfer employees, separate Procurement forms must be completed to terminate access at the original Campus, and establish access at the new Campus. This request should be made in advance of the Effective Date of the personnel action.  

The form should be completed electronically to ensure legibility.
