Permissions for Telecom Reports
Monthly Telecom reports are distributed to ASMs based on HR records. ASMs are encouraged to forward reports to their designated staff.
For summary and management reports, CSLink is used for report distribution with set permissions. Below you’ll see a good example of a division with the ASM who has access to the entire division, and some staff members may have access to all reports within a main department and each DeptID under the main department, while others have access to only one DeptID. If you are uncertain how best to set up permissions, please email ITS-Telecom@csulb.edu for assistance.
Approving or Declining Tickets
The section for submitting tickets in ITHelp can be reached using www.csulb.edu/telecom. When an employee submits a ticket for a telecommunications service, the ticket will be routed to the ASM if there are fiscal implications. The ASM will receive an email notification and can click the button to approve or deny the request. Prompt action on tickets helps facilitate requests.
