All employees of Dowling, including faculty, staff and administrators, are granted network and e-mail accounts according to the process described below. The process of creating employee network, e-mail and student records system accounts is separate and different from granting access for employees to Banner, so please read the instructions carefully.

New Employee, Terminated Employee, Change of Status:

• Human Resources completes a form announcing new employee, terminated employee or change of status. Form indicates full name, department, title, phone, person to whom employee reports, and what action to take.
• Form is emailed to a list of people with "need to know" including Administrative I.S.
• Administrative I.S. forwards to Telecommunications, Help Desk and Banner Support.
• Telecommunications creates or reassigns phone lines and voicemail privileges, as appropriate.
• Help Desk:
  • Creates user account, including e-mail,
  • Notifies Responsibility Center Head or designee of userid and password, and where online to get further info.
• Banner Support waits for a paper form with proper authorization before creating a Banner account. The email notification serves as a "heads-up" to watch for the form.

Banner access for new employee:

• Department prints form at https://my.dowling.edu/forms/general/banner.pdf.
• Department obtains the appropriate approval signatures
• Department delivers completed, signed form to Help Desk (interoffice)
• Help Desk adds user to Banner group to deliver program icon
• Help Desk forwards form to Banner Support
• Banner Support creates account
• Banner Support notifies user, and all signers of form, via e-mail and/or voicemail
• Jeff files form.

Twice-yearly mass cleanup for staff, admin, and (full-time and adjunct) faculty:

• 3 weeks into Fall and Spring semesters, Admin IS lists accounts to be deleted and forwards to H.R. for review. Final list is shared with Banner Support for Banner deletions.
• 4 weeks into semester Admin IS sends e-mail to affected accounts warning of impending deletion. Repeat at 5 weeks.
• 6 weeks into semester Admin IS deletes listed Banner, e-mail and network accounts.
