Requesting Services for VisitorsNonaffiliated individuals will be required to have a University Employee ID (EmplID) and Courtesy Appointment (a non-paid appointment tracked in PeopleSoft) in order to be granted Visitor status. A department can acquire an EmplID and Courtesy Appointment via a Personnel Action Form (PAF). PAFs for Courtesy Appointments are processed through MU's Payroll Office. Once an EmplID has been assigned by the Payroll Office, the department may request University Telecom and IT Resources in the same fashion as employee requests for these services. SharePoint account requests may follow the process outlined on the SharePoint Outside Users page.Cancellation of Services for VisitorsWhen the nonaffiliated individual has left campus or no longer needs access to University Telecom & IT Resources the sponsoring department must terminate the Courtesy Appointment via a PAF. Once the termination PAF has been processed the accounts and other services will be discontinued via the standard employee account deletion process. If a Visitor's access needs to be restricted prior to processing a termination PAF, the sponsoring department's IT Professional can contact Information Security & Account Management at accounts@missouri.edu to request the accounts be locked.Temporary AccessWireless Network Access:For short-term use of Internet access only, guests may use Mizzou Wireless - Guest service.
