Help: New Employee Validation Page

Overview

New hires and rehires use the New Employee Validation page in Wolverine Access to enter or validate their personal data before it is loaded into the official University of Michigan system (M-Pathways). The information must be completed and saved as soon as possible.

The following are definitions of the header fields:

• UMID - A system-assigned identification number that uniquely identifies you at the University of Michigan. This number is always eight digits. The UMID is also referred to as EmplID.
• Uniqname - Your University of Michigan computing ID. Your uniqname becomes part of your permanent e-mail address (uniqname@umich.edu). The uniqname is also referred to as Campus ID.
• SSN - Your social security number. At the University of Michigan, SSN is sometimes known as National ID. If you are in the process of obtaining your SSN, the value in this field might begin with an X.
• Birthdate - The day, month, and year on which you were born, displayed in MM/DD/YYYY format.
• First Name, Middle Name, Last Name - Your first name, middle name, and last name, as they appear on your social security card.

Note: If you have a suffix in your name, it should be included in the Last Name field with a space after the last name and no period. For example:

• The last name for John Smith Jr. should display as "Smith Jr" in the Last Name field.
• The last name for Pat Newman III should display as "Newman III" in the Last Name field.
