If you can't access a folder you'll need to get permission from the department's manager who can grant access using the SPU Security Group Toolbox. |
Off campus access
- If you would like to access department file shares when off-campus you must use Citrix Remote Access or VPN.
SharePoint
SharePoint is a supplemental storage solution for some SPU departments and acts both as a file storage server as well as a workflow and collaboration solution. Some departments rely heavily on SharePoint whereas others do not use it at all. Talk with your department about SharePoint and whether your job requires its use.
