What is the difference between a PeopleSoft BackOffice account and a PeopleSoft Finance account?
PeopleSoft BackOffice is also called the Student System (or HRLS). Accounts in this system begin with ‘8’ for employees, ‘4’ for student employees, and ‘7’ for affiliate accounts. This account is used for accessing advanced tools to monitor, update, or process employee or student information. PeopleSoft Finance is often called F-WEB or F-PRD and is accessible using your regular Novell/ BroncoWeb username and password, however, access must be requested separately from a Novell account. This account is used to monitor, update, process, and track budgetary information for your department, college or the university. These accounts can be requested through the Help Desk, who will work with University Data Stewards to determine access and permissions.
