Financial System Access & Login

Financial Production, SUMMIT Reporting, and UMass BuyWays (including the managed Travel Program access within it) use the same log-in credentials as your campus email account. Be sure that you use your full UMass Lowell email account (first_last@uml.edu or first_last@student.uml.edu) and the corresponding password.

Non-student employees are automatically granted access to the "Shopper" role in UMass BuyWays upon their hire. Additional staff access is granted upon request and the appropriate approvals. Employees request access via an electronic form with approvals from their direct supervisor. All requests get reviewed and have security roles/access approved by data custodians. Request the form needed from the table, below:

Functional Area	Data Custodian	Request Form
Purchasing; Accounts Payable; Asset Management & BuyWays	Thomas Hoole	Purchasing Access Request
Budget, General Ledger, and Summit	Roberto Miller (GL) Maura Shield (Summit)	Budget & Summit Access Request
Grants Management	Sonia Ourique	Grant Access Request

Fully approved forms are forwarded to the Security Administrator who will apply the approved security requests.

Termination of Access

Secure Access is a complex identity management technology and business process solution designed to protect University data. End users must have an active relationship with the University through Human Resources and/or Student Administration in order to access any enterprise application. Secure Access currently protects access to SiS, HR Direct, Summit, e*mpac Financials, Document Imaging and eCert. To learn more about Secure Access, see one of the following documents:
