More like who should do it?

[MrPstv]

Hola,

 

 

Within your establishment who is responsible for the administration of usernames and passwords for the SIMS/CMIS cash office type applications? Well anything that is mapped from the MIS server!

 

When it comes to usernames and passwords for the network and email this is my department.

 

Ta in advance....

I administer anything to do with the Sims which is within my role as I manage the whole network, communications and Finance systems plus much more.

[Arreks]

We manage the SIMS server (updates, maintenance, installation), but our data manager/operations manager handles SIMS accounts and all that good stuff.

[CamelMan]

Heads PA does the Personnel side of things - I then generate SIMS accounts off the back of it.

 

I've been pulling back for the "manage everything with a username" side of things - if someone wants to bring in something new that doesnt integrate to AD (Library system, Special Needs database etc) then its up to those departments to mange them, I just help getting them going. We are growing to much for me to manage the lot!

[ITBadger]

I'm still in the 'anything with a username' camp. I do try to ensure that people consult me before purchasing though as it can be a nightmare when they order a product that doesn't integrate with existing school systems.

We manage the servers but the individual departments manage their users on FMS and Facility. FMS > Finance, while CMIS is handled by what we call here the Admin Department (not to be confused with Network Support/Admin)

[Narwhal]

I administer all usernames and passwords including SIMS and FMS, in fact pretty much any system that has usernames and passwords!

[MrPstv]

I have this debate with our Office Manager, you guys enter all the credentials of the users into Sims wouldn't it make sense to create the username and password at the same time!

All Boxes ticked and ready to roll

[MrPstv]

Access rights will need to be set and the Office Manager is in the best position to know this.

[MalekoUK]

Heads PA deals with users and passwords, we deal with everything else.

[browolf]

the head of hr and the business manager (bursar) create sims accounts. I can but rarely remember how to. I can do password changes, if I'm asked.

[rad]

Personnel add them onto the system, it is then down to ICT (me or NM) to administer their accounts and add the correct rights.

[clockend25]

We administer SIMS accounts here, as above once HR have done their bit.

Same here but the added anything with a motor and wheels..

[Oaktech]

The borough do our Integris usernames at the moment but it will fall to the business manager come January. The Business manager also deals with who has access to the SCO application and RM Finance.
