Access to historical data / pre-UCPath Cutover

How do I access resources for Pre-UCPath Reporting?

• For pre-UCPath reporting, including Financial Link, please proceed to https://act.ucsd.edu/employeelink/queries.htm.
• Requestors may also find https://act.ucsd.edu/employeeHistory to be helpful.
• For new EmployeeLink access, contact your DSA
  DSAs will no longer need to request PPS access, just EmployeeLink access. A ServiceNow ticket will need to be created for ITS, stating the user needs EmployeeLink access and that they are a new employee since UCPath went live.
