To get access to BusinessObjects, you will need to fill out a Statement of Responsibility (SOR) form. The form must be approved by a supervisor and an Authorized Security Requestor (ASR) for the agency.
If Financial, Budget, or Academic access is requested, a signature is required from the agency’s ASR for financial data. If Human Resources (HR), Payroll, Benefits, or TrainTraq access is requested, a signature is required from the agency’s ASR for HR/Payroll data.
Completed SOR Forms need to be sent to support@tamus.edu.
