 Information regarding the new SRM roles and security access to SRM

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is preparing for its implementation of SAP's Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) software. The Department of General Services, in conjunction with IES, is implementing the SRM project which will go live on August 31, 2006.

In support of the project, IES staff will process a mass update to add the SRM roles in production with an effective date of 8/31/2006 (Note: some users who will access SRM during the Controlled System Deployment will have an effective date of 8/28/06). The below role YRC:SRM_LOCATOR_COPA is required for all users who are assigned at least one SRM role. YRC:SRM_LOCATOR_COPA is only required to be assigned once if you are adding multiple SRM roles.

The list provided by SRM for uploading into production identifies agency positions through June 28, 2006. Agency ASA were directed to work with their agency HR offices to collect any positions which require updating after June 28, 2006. Agency Organizational Management Authorization/Security Assigners can begin to add these roles on/after August 31, 2006. Do not use a start date before 8/31/2006. If a role is no longer valid, delimit the role after 8/31/06 using a current date. If you are adding additional SRM roles, and the YRC:SRM_LOCATOR_COPA role has already been assigned, you do not need to add this role again.

In order to provide security access to the SRM system, HR and security updates must flow through an ALE (Application Link Enabling) system from HR to SRM. The ALE will run every night after the nightly security updates are processed. Therefore, security updates will still require overnight processing before a user can access the SRM system. Organizational Management Authorization/Security Assigners should not update any positions before 8/31/2006.
