New User Request

Request Account

PLEASE NOTE: It is advisable to first consult the Global Address Book in Outlook to determine if there is an existing account for your user. If so, please submit a ticket so a transfer may be initiated, rather than requesting a new account, which will be rejected.

***FPI Employee accounts are now created via automation. Please do not submit new user requests using these steps.

  1. Login to: https://admanager.som.umaryland.edu:8443 using your SOM username and password, and select SOM from the dropdown.
  2. Under Create Request select Single User Creation.
  3. (Mandatory Step) Make sure the Selected Template is: DeptOfMedicine-Workflow-WithExchangeOnlineMailbox
  4. (Mandatory Step) Enter the new users full name in the subject to easily identify the request.
  5. Enter a Description.
    • Enter any additional information here.
  6. Enter the appropriate fields on all tabs except "Internal Use". Red are required fields. Be sure to check for spelling and accuracy.
    • Note: Some fields are read only and automatically filled out by the system from the other required fields.
    • ***UMMS employees only: Please enter the UMMS ID of the user in the appropriate field. Failure to do so will result in processing delays.***
    • (Mandatory Step) For the User Start Date enter the users HR start date/first day of employment. 
    • (Mandatory Step) For the Select Container click the plus icon and select the appropriate container. “ADMan Default User Creation” will not provide appropriate access and must be changed.
    • The "Company" field should reflect the users HR group. Temp employees should be set to Other.
    • For some of the drop downs you can search for an entry or browse. If browsing note the < > symbols in the upper right next to the search. Use these to switch scrollable pages.
    • It is highly recommended to select the Manager field, under the Contact tab, and provide the name of the user’s direct report. This will provide in various systems a view of organizational structure and auto populate various teams.
  7. Click Create Request when done.
  8. The “SAM Account Name:” and “Password:” fields will be populated. Do not use/record these as this information will possibly change at approval. A member of the I/S team must now approve the account before it will be created.

***Per Information Security Office guidance user accounts can only be created up to two days prior to the users HR start date. 

***Approval by Medicine I/S is not guaranteed same day. Review and approval will occur as time and availability permits.

User Cleanup Policy

Division Administrators must certify their respective user lists, bi-annually. We will provide all admins detailed instructions for accessing and viewing your user lists. We will provide these instructions and a reminder on 2 dates throughout the year.

*** As a reminder, ALL user departures should be reported to I\S as soon as possible so that we may disable accounts in a timely fashion to comply with HIPPA and UMB campus policies.
