In accordance with Pennsylvania Department of Education’s computer security policies, user access to the eGrants systems must be reviewed on an annual basis.
eGrants automatically assigns an expiration date of one year to each role. Agency User Administrators are responsible for reviewing and renewing the roles for all Agency users.
Agency User Administrators are advised to review their Agency users each year to ensure:
User records are up-to-date.
To ensure that users who no longer represent
the Agency have been inactivated, review the user records periodically. Lock
users who are not currently employed. Delete users who are
no longer employed.
Roles reflect the current user’s job responsibilities.
If Agency personnel change positions
or responsibilities, their respective roles in eGrants may
require updating. Review the roles each year for accuracy.
USER REQUESTS FOR ACCESS: If an active user reports a problem with access, the roles may have expired. Verify the assigned roles and their expiration dates.
