" Assign a User Admin (UA) for your entity to obtain access in Web Based Supply Chain Management (WBSCM).
"

TDA is transitioning the following functions from the TX-UNPS Food Distribution Program (FDP) module to USDA's Web Based Supply Chain Management (WBSCM):

1. Ordering
2. Entitlement Management
3. Receipting (for Direct Ship RAs only)

To obtain access in WBSCM your entity must assign a User Admin (UA). The UA has the ability to create and maintain user accounts, manage user roles, and inactivate user for your entity directly in WBSCM. Each entity can only assign two UA per entity and the person must not be a temporary employee or a contracted staff, such as Food Service Management personnel and Cooperative Coordinators.

The Security Authority for WBSCM (FND-136) form is completed for the assignment of User Admin (UA) and is now available here under the Security Form section. (add hyperlink to here in above line - https://squaremeals.org/FandN-Resources/TX-UNPS-Program-Resources/TX-UNPS-User-Access-Manager ) • The form Security Authority for WBSCM (FND-136) only applies for WBSCM. Entities still need to use Security Authority for User Access Manager (FND-135) for TX-UNPS.
