A CU PeopleSoft ID is a directory account used by IT professionals and some business office super users to log into specific PeopleSoft resources that cannot use the CU System ID or campus credentials. Examples include Application Designer, Excel to CI functionality, PeopleSoft Test Framework, etc. A CU PeopleSoft ID is NOT required for general access to PeopleSoft applications. Normal access is federated and uses campus credentials.

Send an email to access@cu.edu explaining why you need the account.
