Account names must follow a specific format: (Note: login names and email addresses will be dept-usage).
<departmental abbreviation><-><designation> or <prefix><-><suffix>, for example oit-info
Departmental abbreviations should be selected from the drop-down listing of approved abbreviations found on the Departmental Account request form. If no abbreviation correctly describes your department or office, enter a proposed new three to four digit abbreviation in the supplied field. It will be evaluated for uniqueness and clarity and will be utilized if appropriate.
The designation (suffix) to the right of the hyphen is at the discretion of the requesting department. It should be descriptive of the account's proposed usage. Remember this account will be used for logging in so avoid a long name.
