THE ORACLE LOGIN PROCESS HAS BEEN CHANGED!
The process we have been using to log directly into Oracle using your Oracle ID and Password IS NO LONGER IN USE.
Starting now, the only way you can log into Oracle is through your OUTLOOK EMAIL ACCOUNT. This method uses your Outlook ID (your complete CITY email address) and a password specific to your Outlook account.
In order to get into Oracle to complete your timesheet YOU MUST HAVE A WORKING OUTLOOK PASSWORD. If you do not have a working password, YOU MUST CALL THE IT Help Desk at 238-2000 to request a password reset. (As before, the password reset you will be given from the Help Desk will take you a page for creating your own specific Outlook password.) Once you have your specific and secure password you will be able to click on the new updated link below to begin the new process of logging into Oracle through Outlook. Clicking on the link below will bring you to a log-in page that will request your user ID (your CIty email address) and your new working password for Outlook.
TAKE NOTE: Internal Users (Computer Lab):
For those of you who come into, or will come into, Edgewater to enter your time this Wednesday the 5th of November, JAZMIN AND I WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR TWO TIME SLOTS: FROM 10AM TO NOON, AND THEN AGAIN FROM 2:30 TO 4:30, TO HELP WITH THE LOGIN PROCESS ABOVE. If you want to beat the crowds you may want to come to the computer lab during the morning time slot. Remember: If you do not have a working password for getting into your CITY OUTLOOK email account then you must call the IT Help Desk at 238-2000 to get a password reset for your Outlook account before coming into Edgewater.
External Users:
For those of you who feel comfortable following these instructions and completing their timesheets from outside the city system (i.e. from home), may begin entering their time after 6AM and no later than 4:30PM tomorrow Wednesday the 5th of November. Please use the link below to access the Oracle Login page. The difference you will find is that trying to access Outlook from outside the city system will require a 2nd Authorization Method to prove that it is you. There are many options available as you go through the login process, but most of you are already familiar with Microsoft MFA (Multi-Factor Authorization) which is one of the options provided.
There are many ways to save this link so that you can always access it on Time Entry Day, and we can discuss these options when you come into Edgewater to do your time. Note: These Time Entry reminders will also have the new "employee portal" link below.
The new Outlook-Based Oracle timesheet entry link is:
https://employeeportal.oaklandca.gov
(Please disregard any other links, icons, bookmarks, etc. you have used in the past).
Finally, if you are planning on taking any other hours off on Thursday the 6th or Friday the 7th, please add these hours into your time entry on Wednesday the 5th.
