Greetings Crossing Guards,

Note: When viewing this message as a text please click on the link provided as part of the text to access the full message.

Tomorrow, Tuesday 16June26 is Time Entry Day.

MAKE SPECIAL NOTE OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:

This Time Entry Day applies ONLY to Crossing Guards who are currently working Summer School. If you are not working Summer School, please disregard this message.

There will be only one time slot at Edgewater for tech-assisted time entry. The morning time slot will be from 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM.

Remember to enter your time correctly. Please enter only the hours you worked during Summer School and account for any time missed due to illness or other approved absences.

As a reminder: The original way we had been logging directly into Oracle, using your Oracle ID and Password NO LONGER WORKS AND 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 your secure and unique-to-you Outlook password.

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 to 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 link below to begin the 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 Outlook password.

Internal Users (Computer Lab):
There will be only one time slot at Edgewater for tech-assisted time entry. The morning time slot will be from 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. The most important action you must take before coming into Edgewater is to assure or procure a WORKING OUTLOOK PASSWORD.

External Users:
For those of you who feel comfortable following these instructions and completing your timesheets from outside the city system (i.e. from home), you will also be using the same link below. The only difference is that accessing the internal system (Outlook) and supporting apps (Oracle) from outside the city system will require a 2nd Authorization Method to prove that it is you. Most of you are already familiar with Microsoft MFA (Multi-Factor Authorization), which is one of the options that will work.
