How to Submit Request for Others

In some cases, you may need to request access for someone who is not yourself and not your direct report — for example, a colleague you support, a temporary employee, or a contractor. OrangeAccess provides a Request for Others option to make this possible.

• Bulk uploads or department-wide requests are not supported — requests must be made for specific individuals.
