Referral Procedure for HRS Related Questions

WiscIT Incidents resulting in UWSS referrals should be classified as Help Desk Support > REFERRALS > UWSS Service Operations (HRS) and the customers should be directed to the UW-Shared Service Service Operations team.

  1. The preferred referral method is for customers to email serviceoperations@uwss.wisconsin.edu
    • Do not forward emails in WiscIT. Refer the customer and classify the email case as Help Desk Support > REFERRALS > UWSS Service Operations (HRS).
  2. The second referral method is for customers to call either 608-262-0600 or 888-298-0141.
    • Service Operations is available by phone 7:45 AM - 4:30 PM, Monday-Friday. Customers can send an email at any time.

Issues with Enterprise/"Pick 4" HR-related services

Issues with other HRS products, like Cypress and JEMS, and HR-related services, like SFS, should also be classified accordingly. Most are being referred to Universities of Wisconsin Shared Services: [Link for document 17960 is unavailable at this time]
