As part of security management, Food & Nutrition is reminding all Web-Based Supply Chain Management (WBSCM) users including User Administrators of the following:
• Deactivation of WBSCM account
o User accounts, including the User Administrator (UA), that have not been logged into the system within the past 120 days or longer will be deactivated by September 15, 2024, for security reasons
o Identified users will be notified by email in the first week of September. If access should continue, users must sign in before their accounts are deactivated on September 15, 2024.
o If you are the UA and your account is deactivated, a new FND-136 form must be submitted.
• Maximum of two (2) User Administrators (UA) per entity.
o A confirmed list of the assigned UAs for each entity is available on the WBSCM UA website in SquareMeals.
o If changes are needed to the assigned UA, complete and submit the Certificate of Authority for WBSCM (FND-136) form for processing.
• WBSCM account for Food Service Management Company
o Food Service Management Company (FSMC) employees cannot have direct access to WBSCM. Allowing FSMC access gives an external company the ability to spend funds on that entities’ behalf, which is a high security risk.
o If your entity does not contract with an FSMC, ensure entity users security group within TXUNPS does not include the FSMC Rep. This group is dedicated to FSMC employees only.
• Keep User Information Updated
o UAs should continuously review your user’s information, including the security groups assigned. Adjustments to the account can be completed directly in WBSCM. Guides are available at WBSCM UA webpage under “Training” in SquareMeals.
