What Are Group Role Accounts?
Group Role Accounts are department emails that provide a central log in for employees as well as an email address for outside individuals to contact the department.
All group role accounts are subject to the following rules and capabilities:
- Access to Global Address List
- Calendar Features
- Network Printing
- By request, they will have access to the department share drive (M)
Department Staff are in charge of monitoring the account making sure that access is still valid, when an employee (Student, Staff, or Faculty) that had access to the Group Role is terminated from the department, it is required that the password be changed for security reasons.
Group role account passwords can be changed at the following site: https://den.apu.edu/rolepasswd
