Electronic PeopleSoft Administrative Security System (ePASS)
The ePASS (Electronic PeopleSoft Administrative Security System) is an electronic form within Northern Arizona University’s PeopleSoft LOUIE HR system that allows for paperless administrative security requests and security revocation.
An ePASS form is usually initiated by an NAU employee or affiliate requiring administrative access to one of NAU’s PeopleSoft systems (LOUIE Campus, LOUIE HR, or LOUIE Financials). An ePASS form can also be initiated by a supervisor (listed as employee’s reports to) or data steward on behalf of another user.
After the ePASS is initiated, it will be routed for the appropriate approvals, notifications will be sent at various points in the process and, when complete, security will be automatically updated within PeopleSoft.
Types of Forms
Security Request
Used to add administrative access to one of NAU’s PeopleSoft systems (LOUIE Campus, LOUIE HR, or LOUIE Financials).
Security Revocation
Used to revoke access from one of NAU’s PeopleSoft systems due to transfer, change in job duties, or termination.
How to use ePASS

- Ensure the following training has been completed. A security request form cannot be initiated for an individual who has not completed the FERPA Exam and the Information Security Essentials training.
