HRIS/InPower
General Information
The InPower Human Resources Information System (HRIS) is an application that is used to process personnel actions for employees of the University who are subject to the provisions of the State Personnel Act (SPA).
Access Set-Up for Individuals and Departments
Initial accesses to HRIS, as well as access changes or removal, are coordinated by the HR Application Support Help Desk.
For initial access to HRIS, new users (or their department HR Facilitator) must complete the Request for System Access form (also known as the HR-150).
Please note that Payroll access is granted via the Request for Payroll Systems Access Form.
New HRIS users should also be added to the department's roles and approvals listing. A revised copy of the Department Roles/Approvals/Email Notification form should be submitted to HR Applications Support whenever a new user is added.
If you have questions or need assistance in completing any of these forms, please contact the HR Applications Support Help Desk at 962-HELP (indicate you need assistance with HRIS) or submit an on-line help request.
Accessing HRIS
HRIS must be installed on your computer following approval of the Request for System Access. Contact the HR Applications Support Help Desk for additional information.
HRIS does not use the Onyen. Instead, users are assigned a FACS ID username and a temporary password. Passwords can be reset in HRIS. Please submit a remedy request for assistance with password reset. Please note: HRIS does not use the FACS ID password; the HRIS password is unique.
HRIS passwords expire every 90 days.
