• XIDs for People - are XIDs that uniquely identify specific non-TIers who provide services to TI.

• Other XIDs - are XIDs used for things like systems testing and automation. Although this type of XID belongs to a person, it is does not uniquely identify that person, who usually is a TIer identified by an Enterprise user ID, e.g. a0123456.

Note:

The registration process does not add computer access or an Enterprise user ID/password. You must use the Request Account option for that.

To go to PeopleSoft and register a non-TIer:

1. On the XID Request Service website, click on the Register button.

   

2. On the TI Web Login page, log on using your Enterprise user ID and password.

   The PeopleSoft Contractor Add page appears.

4. To fill in the Miscellaneous section use the field definitions below:

   Contractor Company	The name of the contracting company for which the non-TIer works, for example, Volt, Manpower, etc.
   TI Project Lead	The employee number of the TIer who will be responsible for directing the non-TIer's work assignment. By default, the system uses the cost center manager of the person logged on. You can use the magnifying glass button to look up a different employee number. Be sure to type the employee number not the Enterprise user ID. The employee number is a seven-digit number beginning with zero, e.g. 0123456. The Enterprise user ID is the employee number preceded by the letter a, e.g. a0123456.
   Site Code	The four-character site code of the TI site where the non-TIer will work. By default, the system uses the site code of the person logged on. You can use the magnifying glass button to look up the site code.

5. In the Sponsors section, type the employee numbers of two TIers who will serve as the non-TIer's Primary and Backup sponsors. By default, the system makes the person logged on the primary sponsor. You can use the magnifying glass button to look up other employee numbers.

   Country	The three-character code for the country in which the non-TIer will work. You can use the magnifying glass button to look up country codes.

   National ID	If the non-TIer is in the U.S., his/her Social Security number or equivalent. The National ID is not required for non-TIers outside of the U.S.

7. Click on the Save button.

   A message appears indicating the XID assigned to the non-TIer. Make a note of this XID. You will need it to request a badge and/or computer access for the non-TIer later.

   

8. Click on the OK button.

9. If you get a security alert message, click on the Yes button.

   You return to the XID Request Service website. You have now registered a non-TIer and generated an XID.

The XID Request Service sends the badge information to the gobal TI badge system.

Within the XID Request Service, access to TI buildings is tied to the sponsor's location. For example, a sponsor in Dallas can request access only to Dallas TI sites.

Note:

The XID Request Service website does not handle access to restricted internal areas, such as fabs, labs, or computer rooms. Sponsors must use existing request procedures for the local site to request such access.

The default end date for a badge is one year from the start date although you can specify end dates for up to two years from the badge start date. After you request a badge, the non-TIer should go to your local site's badge room to have a picture made. Security personnel will then create the physical badge. If you do not know where your site's badge room is, contact your local security contact: Site Security contact list

The XID Request Service website provides a way to manage multiple computer accounts for which you are sponsor or back-up sponsor--the Renew/Delete Account option. Using this option, you can work through a list of accounts rather than entering each one separately.
