Section 1: Advantage

In order to add a new user to Advantage you must have access to the Advantage Launchpad via the VMware Horizon client or webapp. 

  1. Go to the ‘CDSUSR’ view in Advantage.

...

3. Click on the Copy Advantage User icon, and input the Usercode and System Login ID. The usercode has to be unique, and it is best practice to keep it as close to the System Login ID as possible. The usercode can only be up to 6 characters, generally this is the first initial and first 5 of the user's last name. The System Login ID would be the new hires Active Directory user ID. The cloned IT ticket can be checked for verification if it’s not on the New Hire ticket.
