Employee Accounts

 

The process for employee account creation and access termination is automated to make the process more effective and efficient, better meeting the needs of the 海角乱伦专区 community.

How are employee accounts created?

Account creation at 海角乱伦专区 is generated by input from Human Resources into Banner based on when the employee鈥檚 status as an active employee begins. After an account is created, email notifications are generated and sent to Human Resources, the employee鈥檚 personal email on file, the supervisor of the employee and/or the budget manager of the organization. The email will include the employee's credentials (Network ID and email address). If you receive an email for a new employee that does not report to you or your department, please contact Human Resources.

Access to MyCentral will continue after separation for a period of seven years.

To ensure timely processing of accounts for departing employees, please notify Human Resources if an employee leaves prior to their expected job end to have an account disabled or accesses removed on the appropriate date (i.e. student workers, temporary workers, etc.).

The Office of Technology is continuing efforts to transition 海角乱伦专区 systems running the Windows 10 operating systems to Windows 11. Analyzing the readiness of existing devices for Windows 11 relies solely on the hardware specifications. Once the analysis is conducted, the determination is made whether a device can either be upgraded to Windows 11 or must be replaced. The evaluations are essentially a 鈥減ass / fail鈥� exercise. If the device meets the hardware specifications for Windows 11, the device can be upgraded to the Windows 11 operating system. If the device does not meet the hardware specifications for Windows 11, then the device must be replaced before October 2025.

Current experiences with devices being upgraded to and running Windows 11 are positive. New systems purchased have the Windows 11 operating system installed. The Office of Technology is now offering Windows 11 to those devices that have passed the hardware specifications test. On the system taskbar, you will see the Fighting Mule Head icon, and if the Fighting Mule Head icon is not present, then left click on the 鈥�>鈥� or 鈥淾鈥� symbol, which will display the Fighting Mule Head icon. Left click on the Fighting Mule Head icon to open the 鈥満＝锹衣鬃ㄇ� Self Service鈥� application. Left click on the 鈥淐atalog鈥� tab to see the offer to upgrade your system to Windows 11.

Please know that the Windows 11 upgrade will take some time to complete. The duration of the Windows 11 upgrade is dependent on several factors pertaining to the device characteristics and configuration. Therefore, the Office of Technology recommends that you accept and start the Windows 11 operating system update at the end of the workday. You will need to leave your device powered on, which means laptops should be docked and connected to the power supply. The device will automatically update and restart when the update is finished.

The Office of Technology also suggests that everyone in the same immediate office area should not execute the Windows 11 upgrade process at the same time. While the Office of Technology does not anticipate any significant issues, we all know that application upgrades from time to time can create challenges. In addition, the Office of Technology acknowledges that challenges may exist in some areas especially where older software applications and printers are installed. Therefore, the Office of Technology recommends that one or two individuals in each respective area conduct the upgrade to ensure the desired outcome is achieved. If the Windows 11 upgrade on the first few machines goes without incident, then proceed with the upgrade on the other systems in the office.

If you have any questions about upgrading to Windows 11 or your encounter any issues with the Windows 11 upgrade process, please call the Technology Support Center at 660-543-4357. You can also email the Technology Support center at tsc@ucmo.edu. Thank you.

Multi-factor authentication provides a second layer of security to any type of login, requiring extra information or a physical device to log in, in addition to your password.  Multi-factor authentication can also be called Two-Factor authentication or 2FA.

Multi-factor authentication enhances the security of your account by using a secondary device to verify your identity. This prevents anyone but you from accessing your account, even if they know your password.
