ePAN

The electronic PAN (ePAN) is available in OnBase Unity Client. If you need access to submit, or approve an ePAN, you will need to submit an OnBase Access Request Form.

Any questions related to the content of the ePAN should be directed to your HR Analyst. Please refer to the Department Assignments to find out who your HR Analyst is.

Questions related to the functions of ePANs and/or OnBase should be directed to Chelsea Cross at ccross@csusm.edu or ext. 4439.

*For student background checks, please contact Chelsea Cross, and indicate in the ePAN "Comment Box" that your student needs a background check.*
