Common Questions with the new EFS PeopleSoft Financial system

How do I re-route my work if I'm out?

If you know that you will be out of the office or unavailable, please be aware that you can reassign your work. The PeopleSoft functionality will reassign all work for approvals, not specific transaction types. Therefore, prior to reassigning work, it is important to carefully determine who to reassign it to. To help you make this determination, contact your Cluster Director. After determining to whom you will reassign your work, click "My System Profile" near the bottom of the left menu. Indicate the Alternate User ID and the dates you wish to reassign work.

For more FAQs or EFS related common questions go to: http://www.finsys.umn.edu/news/news.html

Manufacturing defect causes some M Keys to be replaced

M Keys with serial numbers starting with "E" have a manufacturing defect that will cause them to fail prematurely.

In late August replacement M Keys were sent out to anyone who had activated an "E" M Key. Most users have already activated their replacement M Keys. If you have not yet activated your replacement M Key, please do so as soon as possible by going to www.umn.edu/myaccount.

The M Key contains a battery so the defective "E" M Key should be placed in the battery recycling receptacle in your building.

M Key - Two Factor Authentication

The University has implemented a two-factor authentication system.  Two-factor refers to something you have, and something you know.  The most common form of two-factor authentication is an Instant Cash Card.  You need both the card (something you have) and the PIN number (something you know) to authenticate and use banking services. More Information...
