Important Security Reminders for User Access Managers (UAM) of TX-UNPS

• Food Service Management Center representatives can have View only access to TX-UNPS by providing the “FSMC Rep” security group.
  • FSMC users that have edit access to the system will be removed and may result in corrective action.
  • If your entity contracts with an FSMC and you do not have access to the “FSMC Rep” security group, please send an updated Security Authority for User Access Manager (FND-135) form to tdauam@texasagriculture.gov.

• TDA has identified common errors that may delay the setup or update of users:
  • Incomplete set-up process for new users.
    • The User ID must be generated to finalize the setup of a new user.  Reference Step 4 of the User Access Manager Handbook (section 2.0 Adding a New User).
  • Security groups are not assigned to a user.
    • Each user should have at least 1 security group assigned whether a new user or updating an existing user.  Reference Step 4 of the User Access Manager Handbook (section 3.0 Modifying/Updating a User).
  • Security groups are outdated for existing users.
    • Existing users should have security groups assigned based on the list provided in the Security Groups section of the User Access Manager Handbook as applied to their job functions.

• The Security Authority for User Access Manager (FND-135) form is completed for assignment of the UAM. If the Highest Official is delegating the responsibility to another user:
  • Section B should be completed with the delegated user’s name and signature.
