HRSC Process

Do I have to use the Cherwell Customer Portal?

No, this is a Supplemental Tool. You are able to communicate requests by using the email hrsc@colorado.edu.

Why is there a ticket listed in "All My Tickets" that I don't recognize?
  • You may be the contact for this request, but not the initiator. The HRSC has received a request from your Dean's Office or one of your employees directly, and has updated the "requestor" to you.
  • Your HRSC Coordinator may have created a ticket for you based on other information received.
What does it mean when a ticket is Pending - Department Response?

The Coordinator is waiting on information from the department to proceed. Please see the corresponding Outlook message related to this ticket.

Why has my short description changed?

Coordinators change the Short Description to help organize their work.

I got an email notification that I created a ticket, but I didn't submit anything.

If your coordinator clones a ticket that you've submitted as part of our work process, you will receive an email notification. No action is required on your part.
