IS&T Official Notice 20210311-304

This email was sent to: Employees


Please be advised that PASSHE will be making some enhancements to the Employee Self-Service (ESS) Web Portal that will improve the State System's overall security posture and support the transition to SourcePoint (Ariba).

What is Changing:

The changes will activate both single sign-on (SSO) and multi-factor authentication (MFA), and will be integrated with each universities' MFA systems (Duo for WCU). This will enable seamless access to next-generation technologies including SourcePoint (Ariba) and the State System's upcoming mobile-capable portal.

Users will be presented with a new login screen from which they will select their authentication organization (West Chester University). Once selected users will be redirected to our familiar WCU SSO page to enter their user login credentials.

Once logged in, users can navigate the portal as they already do today. SourcePoint and other applications will not request further authentication. The updated portal will be available starting on March 20th.

If you have any questions, please contact the Help Desk through ServiceNow at https://www.wcupa.edu/servicenow
