System Access Request (SAR)<\/strong> is a web application that automates the approval process for granting and revoking employee access to HR data, Student Information System (SIS) data, Financial data, and Document Management data \u2014 as well as other data systems at NC State. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A SAR may be needed as an employee\u2019s job changes and new access is required, a new employee is hired, or when an employee leaves the department or university.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prerequisites<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

ISPA Form<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Before requesting SAR access for an employee, your employee must sign and submit an electronic Information Security & Privacy Acknowledgement (ISPA) form, which is available from the MyPack Portal<\/a>. A SAR will not be granted until this requirement has been met.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

NOTE:<\/strong>  Temporary employees or contractors without access to the MyPack Portal<\/a> can print the ISPA form<\/a> and submit a signed copy to their management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Requesting Access<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Who Should Request Access<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    No employee should submit SAR requesting their own access<\/strong>, as it is a conflict of interest and the Department or Unit Head needs to approve the request.<\/em> When access is needed the departmental Business Coordinator or Administrative Assistant should consult the Department or Unit Head to determine what access is appropriate based on the individual\u2019s role and to gain their approval for the access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
