Entitlements and Restrictions

Note:  For additional information on Emeritus benefits see the university's Policy on Emeritus Faculty.

Steps to Request: The HREM Administrator of each department enters an appointment in HREM. The appointment then goes through the HREM approval process.  Once the appointment is approved, Business Administrators, HREM Administrators, or Departmental Administrators can request accounts by sending email to accounts@andrew.cmu.edu with the following information:

1. Employee's full name as entered into HREM
2. HRIS ID
3. Three preferred userIDs that meet the following requirements:
   • UserIDs must be a minimum of 3 to a maximum of 8 alpha-numeric characters (no punctuation).
   • The account options should be variations of
     • first initial/last name (e.g., tsmith).
     • first name/last initial (e.g., thomass)
     • some other combination using all name components (e.g., tsmithjr or tfsmith or tfs).
   • If there are no available options that meet the guidelines, the Help Center will provide three available options from which the requester can choose.
4. The account is manually created when the information appears in the directory. Typically, this is the day after it is approved but may sometimes take a little longer.
