New Username and Password Starting September 10, 2007

Adhering to the Cyber Safety policies, your Open Provision System username and password have changed. As you know, a direct access login is needed to access the provisions database. The new username and password is different from your MyUCDavis and PPS-DS login and password (that use Kerberos), and is also different from the on-line PPS system. Payroll Services has sponsored development of a new self-service utility to give Open Provision System users quick access to their username and password. The following are instructions to retrieve your username and password:

  1. Log into PPS Decision Support (directly at http://payweb.ucdavis.edu/ or from the MyUCDavis portal).
  2. You should see two links. Click on the "Open Provision User ID/Password" link. Your current username and password should then be displayed.

If you have any questions or problems with obtaining this information, please send an email to paysys-support@ucdavis.edu; one of the team members will reply to your questions. If you have questions about the Open Provision System, please email Provisions at provisions@ucdavis.edu.

A link to the supported Java version and installation instructions is located at the IET link to the left side of this page under "Java Plug-In".

LoginID / Username and Password

To access the open provision system through the web, you need two username/loginids and passwords. First, you need your Kerberos loginid and password to access the application web page (unless you have already provided it in the same browser session). Second, a direct access username and password are needed to access the provisions database. This second username and password is different from your MyUCDavis and PPS-DS loginid (that use your Kerberos password), and is also different from the on-line PPS system.

If you have forgotten your username and password, a quick self-service utility is available. The following are instructions to retrieve your username and password:

  1. Log into PPS Decision Support (directly at http://payweb.ucdavis.edu/ or from the MyUCDavis portal).
  2. You should see two links. Click on the "Open Provision UserID/Password" link. Your current username and password should then be displayed.

If you have any questions or problems with obtaining this information, please send an email to paysys-support@ucdavis.edu; one of the team members will reply to your questions.
