Enrollment Overview

This enrollment procedure should be used by any financial institution that formed after March 31, 2005, did not submit a March 31, 2005 Call Report, or has changed contact information since filing the March 31, 2005 Call Report. All other financial institutions must use the Global Enrollment procedures found in the left frame.

The first user account for each organization will be designated as the Delegated Site Administrator (DSA). The DSA is responsible for approving or denying all subsequent user accounts and assigning roles that determine the CDR access rights for the user. Additionally, the DSA will manage the user accounts by activating or de-activating accounts and changing roles. Each organization should set up and maintain two or more DSAs to ensure adequate user support. There is no limit to the number of DSAs that can be assigned.

Process for Enrolling the First DSA

  1.  User submits a Request for an Account.
  2. An FFIEC Security Administrator is notified that an account request has been submitted and will approve or deny the account request and assign roles to the user.  Note: The first user for the organization will be setup as the DSA and will approve, deny, and manage subsequent users for the organization.
  3. The CDR sends an e-mail message to the DSA once the account has been created by the FFIEC Security Administrator.
  4. The DSA will login and complete the Security Awareness Training and access the CDR.

Instructions for establishing additional user accounts can be found in the Subsequent Financial Institution Users section below.
