Can I access Murphy Online from home?
You can access the Murphy Online Information System from the HR website www.stthomas.edu/hr under ‘Employee Self Service’, or on the Internet from home or elsewhere at http://banner.stthomas.edu.
What information do I need to access the Murphy Online Information System?
1. You will need your UST ID (Identification Number): This nine-digit number can be found under your name on your Tommie eXpress photo ID card, or on your paycheck/direct deposit advice.
2. You will need your PIN (Personal Identification Number): Employees are issued their own personal identification number for use with the Murphy Online Information System. If you have forgotten your PIN, or need a new PIN issued, you can contact the IRT Tech Desk at 651-962-6230 or irthelp@stthomas.edu.
Is my PIN Confidential?
Each employee is issued their own personal identification number to access features within the Murphy Online Information System.
It’s important to know that whether you’re a student registering for class, a budget manager looking up an account balance, or an employee checking your last W-2, you will use the same personal identification number to gain access to those features.
Your personal identification number is for your use alone and should not be given to others. Remember, if you share your PIN with others, they will have access to your personal data!
If you have shared your PIN with anyone, and would like to reset your PIN or challenge question, you can change both through the Personal Information features of Murphy Online.
What can I do to ensure my personal information remains confidential?
The Murphy Online Information System has the latest in Internet standard security software packaged into it. All information between your browser and the database server is encrypted at the highest level available. To ensure your personal information remains confidential you can:
- Treat your PIN as any other confidential piece of information, and do not share it with others.
