What is OU-Web?

OU-Web is an authentication system for certain Oakland University web applications. Users with OU-Web accounts will be able to login to these applications using their personal OU-Web username / password. Some of the applications that use OU Web Authentication are:

• IT and ITI helpdesks
• OU Forums Management
• Department Waitlists

Note that just because you have an OU-Web account doesn't mean you have access to ALL OU-Web applications. In most cases, your OU-Web Account has to be added to the specific application in order for you to be able to enter that application. For instance, even if you have an OU-Web account, you won't have access to the ITI helpdesk unless you are granted access by the ITI helpdesk administrator.

Who gets an OU-Web account?

OU-Web is integrated with Banner. At a scheduled time each day, OU-WEB queries Banner for core information about faculty and staff members from designated employee groups. Specifically, the interface looks for employees that meet the following criteria:

• Employee has one of the following status code: A, F, P in the employee profile view.
• Employee has a valid OAKU e-mail in the Banner employee e-mail view.
• Employee belongs to one of the following ECLS groups:
  • AA - Academic Administrator
  • DD - Academic Dean
  • YY - Academic Research
  • PF - Admin Professional Full-time
  • PP - Admin Professional Part-time
  • CA - Casual
  • CM - Casual Monthly
  • CE - CE & Labor Studies Ctr Instruc
  • CX - Clerical Tech Excluded FT
  • CF - Clerical Tech Full-time
  • CH - Clerical Tech Hourly
  • CP - Clerical Tech Part-time
  • DF - Dispatcher-Full-time
  • EE - Executive
  • FF - Faculty
  • IC - Individual Contract - Coaches
  • IF - Individual Contract Full-Time
  • IH - Individual Contract Hourly
  • IP - Individual Contract Part-Time
  • MB - MBPAC - Hourly
  • MS - MBPAC - Salary

  • OF - Police Officer Full-time
  • SF - Police Sergeant Full-time
  • RR - Researcher
  • HF - Service Maintenance Full-time
  • LS - Special Lecturers

  • VF - Visiting Faculty

Unless the user meets ALL of these criteria in Banner, he/she will NOT be added to the OU-web system automatically.

In cases where a user (such as a student) needs access but does not meet the interface criteria, he/she can request that an account be manually created for him/her. Please speak to the administrator if you need an account.

What is my OU-Web username and password?

Your OU-Web username is the same as your Oakland University e-mail name. So if your OU e-mail address is jones@oakland.edu, your OU-Web account name is jones. Your password is generally your birthdate (minus the slashes and any leading zeros; e.g., if your birthdate is 01/20/1970, your password is 1201970). We strongly encourage all OU-Web users to change their default starting password by logging into the login box, above.
