UHR|Connect November 2018 Vol. 4 No.11 Another successful Open Enrollment Fair!
Timesheets and MFA Between October 29 and November 12, 2018, the Payroll and Human Resources (PHR) system will begin using the University of Maryland's Central Authentication Service (CAS), which requires multi-factor authentication. MFA will be required to use PHR to access earning statements, complete timesheets, and perform all other PHR tasks. Employees that have not already enrolled in the Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) are strongly encouraged to do so in preparation for the MFA implementation with PHR scheduled for Time Entry on November 12, 2018. The sooner employees get enrolled, the better. Information and assistance for MFA enrollment can be found at https://it.umd.edu/mfa or by contacting the IT Service Desk at 301.405.1500 or itsc@umd.edu.
