How to Update KFS and KDW Roles and Payment Authorizers
Use the Access and Payment Authorizers – By Org, tab to review and update KFS and KDW roles by NetID. Work in small groupings (e.g., single departments rather than entire units) to avoid response delays from the dashboard system.
You can filter/sort the UpdateApproval column to manage which records still need to be processed.
Select the options for your organization’s information and select Apply to return the results you want.
Under Select Update Type:
Choose Approve/Remove ALL Roles if you want to remove or assign all roles at once for the same person:
If the employee’s NetID has been terminated, remove all roles by entering N in the Update Approval column.
If the employee’s current job responsibilities require the roles, enter Y for Update Approval.
Choose Approve/Remove Individual Roles if you want to remove or assignroles individually to a person.
If a current employee has changed job responsibilities and requires role updates, remove specific roles by entering N in the Update Approval column, and add specific roles by entering Y.
Select Apply and then Refresh at the bottom of the page when you have completed all changes.
Use the Act as Proxy to be Removed exportable report on the Standard Reportstab in the Annual Certification dashboard. Authorized approvers can copy the data from this report and paste it into the usual loader spreadsheet.
