Supervisors are not permitted to request a staff member University Computer Account (my.pitt.edu) password.

Staff are not permitted to share passwords with anyone, including spouses or friends.

Should a supervisor have a need to access a staff member’s email account:

Staff member should be notified of this request. If the staff member can honor the request, then they should be given that opportunity.

If staff member authorizes the request, preferably in writing, the supervisor should notify your respective IT Consultant for access.

Should a supervisor have a need to access a staff member’s file without the knowledge of the staff member:

Supervisor must obtain approval to proceed from their respective Department Head and notify the respective Responsibility Center (RC).

If approved, you must obtain approval of University Counsel to proceed.

Pitt IT provides a wide variety of software titles to students, faculty and staff through the University’s agreements with software vendors. There are several ways you can obtain software via the Software Distribution Services. IT Team will ensure that illegal or unlicensed software will not be installed on a University staff computer. If non-enterprise software is requested the IT Team will assess and triage the request. IT Team informs the Assistant Vice Chancellor Budget and Finance and then is vetted by Pitt IT Security. Securing Confidential Personal Data Due to the nature of the work, staff members in the Office of SVC Engagement may have access to personally identifiable information for a variety of University of Pittsburgh stakeholders. This information includes, but is not limited to, social security numbers, passwords, credit card information, passport information, date of birth, addresses, etc. The Office of SVC Engagement is committed to protecting such information. This outlines the procedure for protecting and verifying the protection of personally identifiable information in electronic form. Whenever possible sensitive information is saved on automated systems requiring a password that changes frequently, e.g. PeopleSoft. These systems are typically behind the Pitt Portal, which includes the enhanced security of multi-factor authentication. Personally identifiable data should not be saved on local machines. In the rare case that the information must be saved locally, encryption software will be used to ensure that information is secure. Computer Replacement Plan Annually, each Spring the Budget and Finance Manager will meet with the IT Team to assess the age of computers, cellular phones and printers. Decisions for the upcoming fiscal year will be made for purchases to occur in the Fall and Spring terms.

UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH OFFICE OF FINANCIAL COMPLIANCE FOR RESEARCH

Request to Create/Delete Effort Coordinator Roles Effort Coordinators (ECs) are responsible for the pre-review of all employee effort statements associated to their department(s) prior to the release of these statements to the Principal Investigators (PIs) for certification. When necessary, the EC may place effort statements on hold to process any modifications affecting those statements through the SPAR application. ECs monitor the completion of certifications and follow up with PIs as necessary to resolve issues and complete the certification process. A variety of management reports are available to the EC providing employee and/or sponsored project information. ECs are not able to certify effort statements. Effort Coordinator Roles: 

Lead Effort Coordinator (LEC) - Has access to employee salary information in ECC. Will receive system-generated alerts regarding uncertified effort on sponsored awards in their assigned area(s). LEC may have Department level or RC level access. Each department with accounts or employees related to sponsored awards must have at least one Lead Effort Coordinator, but may have multiple.

Secondary Effort Coordinator (SEC) – Cannot access employee salary information in ECC. Will receive system-generated alerts regarding uncertified effort in their assigned area(s). Each department with accounts or employees related to sponsored awards may have multiple SECs, but none is required.

Primary Effort Coordinator (PEC) – LEC who will be the point of contact for communications from ECC and from Central Administration. In particular, they will receive notifications of PAR tasks which will require their approval prior to the information being incorporated in an effort statement and making the statement available for certification. No other EC related to the effort statement will receive this notification or have access to the PAR task. This role can be transferred or assigned from one LEC to another by any Effort Coordinator associated to the department via the Department Dashboard. This assignment is done at the department level without Central Administrative approval or intervention, no administrative recordkeeping is required. Changes to or from the PEC position will not change the user’s access, rights or restrictions, only the receipt of emails related to tasks and the ability to process those tasks. We strongly suggest the role be given to a LEC who is most familiar with effort in this area. Each department with accounts or employees related to sponsored awards must have a PEC, but can only have one at a time.

The home department is responsible to terminate roles/accesses as they become unnecessary.

PantherExpress User Profile Form Instructions

Introduction: The PantherExpress User Profile Form must be filled out in order to obtain access to the PantherExpress System. All users in PantherExpress are classified under three roles: Shopper, Department Buyer, and Approver. Please read the “Role Explanations” section below to determine which role(s) you will have in PantherExpress. When this form is completed, please email it to pantherbuy@cfo.pitt.edu. If you have any questions regarding this form, please contact customer service HERE or check our website, found at http://cfo.pitt.edu/pexpress/pbuytraining.php. You must also fill out a Conflict of Interest form found at http://www.cfo.pitt.edu/pexpress/documents/CONFLICTOFINTERESTCERTIFICATION.pdf.

User Training Requirements: Users registering to be an Approver or Department Buyer must attend PantherExpress training and are required to complete the required training. Users will be registered for the proper training. You will receive an email from the Learning Management System once you have been registered for the proper training.

Policy: It is University Policy that if a PantherExpress user has not accessed the system for 6 months or longer, the user will have to retake the appropriate training(s) according to his/her role(s) in PantherExpress. This is due to the system upgrades that occur throughout the year and the changes that are made to the various screens and software functions.

Role Explanations: Shopper ONLY – A shopper has the ability to log into PantherExpress, search the hosted catalogs and vendor punchouts, and place items into a shopping cart. The shopper DOES NOT have the ability to apply an account number to an order. The cart and its contents will be sent to the designated Account Assigner(s) to review the order, attach the appropriate account information, and submit the order to the Departmental Approval workflow. NOTE: Shoppers WILL NOT be given access to the Specialty Forms. Department Buyer – A Department Buyer has the ability to log into PantherExpress, search the hosted catalogs and vendor punchouts, place items into shopping carts, and submit the orders to the supplier for fulfillment. The Department Buyer is NOT restricted like the shopper role. Buyers can and must attach an account number to their orders. A dollar Spending Limit is required and can be indicated as Level 1 ($0), Level 2 ($500), Level 3 ($5,000), or Level 4 ($10,000). Standard Forms Access will provide the buyer with additional access to the Non-Catalog, Blanket, and Software forms. This is covered during the in-class training with Balazs Kudelasz, but additional online training is available for Buyers who do not have this access. Specialty Forms Access will provide the Buyer with access to the Conference and Event, Dues, Other Payment, PSA, Refunds, Supplier Agreement, and Research Sub-Contract forms. Specialty Forms ONLY – The Specialty Forms ONLY role will provide the user with the ability to access and use the Specialty Forms (Conference and Event, Dues, Other Payment Request, PSA, Refunds, Supplier Agreement, Research Sub-Contracts). The Specialty Forms ONLY role does NOT provide the user with buying abilities, and he/she will not have access to punchouts, hosted catalogs, or standard forms. Any transaction placed will go to a designated 2nd signature approver that is listed on the form.

PantherExpress Department Approver Form Approvals: Buyers in PantherExpress can have three different levels of dollar spending: $0, $500, and $5000. If they have a $0 spending level, every order they place will require approval. If they have a $500 spending level, they can place orders up to and including $500 without approval, however if that buyer places an order that is $500.01 or higher, it will require approval. If the buyer has a $5000 spending level, they may place orders up to and including $5000 without approval, however any order $5000.01 or greater will require approval. Approvals in PantherExpress will occur at a department level. There are three tiers of Approvers. Each department must have at least one person approving at each level. Those levels are: $0-$500, $500.01-$5000, and $5000.01 and above. •

An approver/department reconciler at the $0-$500 level will see ALL orders requiring approval between $0 up to and including $500. For example, if a buyer who has $0 approval places an order for $350, it will go to the approver(s) who are listed in the $0-$500 range. Once an approver at this level has approved the order, it will go to the vendor.

An approver/department reconciler at the $500.01-$5000 level will see ALL orders requiring approval between $500.01 up to and including $5000. For example, if a buyer who has either $0 or $500 approval, places an order for $1000, it will go to the approver(s) who are listed in the $500.01-$5000 range, passing over the $0-$500 level. Once an approver at this level has approved the order, it will go to the vendor.

An approver/department reconciler at the $5000.01 and above level will see ALL orders greater than $5000.01. For example, if any buyer, regardless of dollar approval level, places an order for $10000, it will go to the approver(s) who are listed in the $5000.01 and above range, passing over both the $0-$500 and $500.01-$5000 levels. Once an approver at this level has approved the order, it will go to Purchasing Services for further approval.

Important Notes: •

Each department MUST have at least one person at each approval level.

An approver can be listed at one, two, or all three levels of approval. For example, if Andrew Approver wants to be able to approve all orders in his department that require approval, he can be placed at all three levels.

Each approval level can have multiple people listed at any level. For example, if Strategic Sourcing wants to have three people approving orders at the $0-$500 level, two at the $500.01-$5000 level, and one at the $5000.01 and above level, they can do that.

Page 36


DocuSign Envelope ID: A2650A45-445B-455D-A163-6422938A621E

o If your department has multiple approvers listed at any level, then any approvals that fall into that level will be placed into a shared folder. For example, a buyer with $0 approval in Strategic Sourcing places an order for $350. This order will go into a shared folder for approval. If Strategic Sourcing has three approvers at the $0-$500 level, any of the three approvers will have access to the folder and will be able to approve the order. It will only require the approval of one of the three approvers. •

All orders over $5000 will go to Purchasing Services after department approval.

•

Appropriate Supervisor and RC signature is required for this form.

https://www.technology.pitt.edu/services/federated-authorization-community Federated Authorization Community The new Federated Authorization Community will allow University faculty and staff to request access to the University's enterprise systems and data—including requests for the Student Information System (PeopleSoft), the Student Mart, the General Ledger (GL) Mart, and Responsibility Center Administrator (RC Admin) access. The system also handles the entire approval process, routing user requests to any appropriate Security Contact, Data Steward, and RC Admin approvers. Access is then implemented by the Pitt IT Analytics team. Key Benefits  

Access the system easily without restrictions–You can access the Federated Authorization Community from any device and using almost any web browser. Improve workflow efficiency–Use one central, streamlined location to handle data and enterprise system access requests and approvals reduces time to process requests substantially. View and manage requests transparently–As a requester, receive email feedback about the status of your request(s). As an approver, quickly view and handle any requests requiring your attention.

Getting Started To get started or have questions answered, please contact one of these three groups:   

Financial Data Approvers for information about the General Ledger (GL Mart). Responsibility Center Administrators (RC Admin) for information about RC Admins. Security Contacts for information about PeopleSoft and the Student Mart.
