Yearly Access Review (YAR)

9/14/2018 Yearly Access Review Authorized Requestor (AR) responsibility for certification: As stewards of users security information for your tub, Authorized Requestors are responsible for ensuring that systems access is commensurate with a person’s job function. You are certifying that you have reviewed the access rights for appropriateness based on day to day job responsibilities for all users in your Tub for the application(s) you oversee (i.e. Oracle, PeopleSoft, GMAS, Concur and OBI). You are also certifying that you have requested access be revoked or modified for those users where the access is no longer appropriate (requests should be submitted through the normal request process)

Yearly Access Review (continued)
You will need to save your supporting evidence of your review and any modifications you make (i.e. list of users that were modified, what was modified and request date of modifications). This will be subject to a review by PWC during the FY17 audit. Run the CREW report associated with the application you are certifying (OBI and Concur are not included in the CREW reports and will need a separate process) Save the report as a PDF Print a copy of the PDF report and make notes of any changes that are made (this will evidence the changes and will be needed for PWC audit as supporting documentation) Provide the CREW Request ID on the certification form a copy of your PDF files to: Note in subject line 2016 YAR

Project Update Decommissioning of CREW Grants Management dashboards planned for December 1st Grants Training has been underway since July and will continue monthly through early We do have users showing up to training without access In August we began distributing a “Monthly Action Plan” to let Engagement Councils know of upcoming tasks where there involvement is needed Project Team has deployed 14 Financials Dashboards to OBI Production with Tub-based access Beginning to build our Financials Super User community – dashboard specific sessions begin on November 7th and will continue until Calendar year-end We will be expanding the pilot in January. Planning a joint LIM and AR meeting to walk through Wave 5 access request form

Data Access Control Timeline
DAC 0.1 : TUB Level access for piloting the financial dashboards with a specific group of users from each School / Central. DAC 1.0 : Will include most commonly used access controls, both content and data controls, which would allow the TUBs to expand their pilot across much larger population of their user base. DAC 2.0 : Will tackle any shortcomings of DAC 1.0. Address additional security requirements that the TUBS consider it as pertinent. Also includes building summary to detail drilldowns that will eliminate the need to build granular access control. DAC 3.0 : Will tackle any shortcomings of DAC 1.0/2.0. Address additional security requirements that the TUBS consider it as showstopper to decommission the CREW Financial Reports.
