How to Review or Remove My Teams Access

How to Review or Remove My Teams Access

As a manager, you can use OrangeAccess to review the access of your direct reports and request removal when access is no longer needed. This helps ensure your team’s access stays accurate and aligned with University policies.


Why Review Team Access?

Regularly reviewing your team’s access helps you:

  • Confirm employees only have access they need for their current role.

  • Identify outdated access (for example, after a job change).

  • Support University compliance and security requirements.



2. Review Your Team’s Access

  1. From the home page, select My Team Tile.

  2. Select the employee whose access you want to review.

  3. Their access is organized into tabs:

    • Accounts – User accounts in different systems (cannot be changed in OrangeAccess).

    • Entitlements – Fine-grained permissions (e.g., ability to run certain reports).

    • Roles – Bundles of entitlements grouped by job function, possibly across applications.

    • Access Profiles – Predefined sets of access items, usually within a single application.

    • Applications – The overall systems and applications assigned to the employee.

    • Work reassignment - Delegated work reassignments set up for the employee

3. Request to Remove Access

  1. Navigate to the tab where the access is listed.

  2. Locate the access item to remove.

  3. Select Remove Access next to the item.

  4. (Optional) Add a comment explaining why the removal is needed.

  5. Select Submit Request.

4. What Happens Next?

  • In most cases, removal requests are processed automatically.

  • For sensitive access, the request may still require additional approval (e.g., by the application/data owner).

  • You can track the status of the request under the Pending Requests tile. 📸 Screenshot: Request center page showing the team removal request in completed

  • The employee will receive an email once their access is removed. 📸 Screenshot: access removal email showing the access was removed


Tip for Managers: Reviewing your team’s access during job changes, promotions, or annually as part of compliance checks is a good best practice.
