Infor Lawson/EMPAC Requester and Approver training is now available online via Cornerstone. Please view instructions here if you need to complete training. If you would like to be added to the EMPAC USERS email distribution list, send an email to Regi Foster RFoster@mednet.ucla.edu.
*Access to Portal Lawson/EMPAC will be granted once training has been completed. Users cannot be both a Requestor and an Approver. Must be one or the other, but not both. Users do not need to complete both trainings, only complete the training, for the access you need.*
For Requestors:
Once you have completed the training, you should receive a “Certificate of Completion” in your Cornerstone “Transcript” history. Wait 1 Business Day after completion and then have your Dept. Authorizer submit a “Change Access Order Guide” request via Service-Now to ISS ID/Access Mgmt. to assign your Lawson Role as rRequestor. Once the request is completed by ISS ID/Access Mgmt., test your login to confirm you have access.
For Approvers:
Once you have completed the training, you should receive a “Certificate of Completion” in your Cornerstone “Transcript” history. Wait 1 Business Day after completion and then have your Dept. Authorizer submit a “Change Access Order Guide” request via Service-Now to ISS ID/Access Mgmt. to assign your Lawson Role as rReqApprover. Once the request is completed by ISS ID/Access Mgmt., test your login to confirm you have access.
Once your Approver access has been granted, please contact Regi Foster RFoster@mednet.ucla.edu to provide the Dept. “Requester” ID/Code for the Approval Track you are being added to, and where you’re being added. An approval track update request will then be submitted to Michelle Chan A/P controller, for review/approval. Once approved, the approval track will be updated and you will be issued your Lawson EMPAC Approval Review 4 digit “Authorization ID”.
