How to unlock an Online Center account

Summary

A customer is unable to access his Online Center account. This article will provide instructions on how to unlock the account.

Body

Issue

A user is unable to access their Online Center account through the MyGRCC portal. They are encountering an error message or being directed to a secondary login screen asking for a User ID and passphrase, rather than being signed in automatically.

Environment

  • Online Center (Campus Solutions)
  • MyGRCC Portal

Resolution

This issue typically occurs when the user's specific Online Center profile has been locked within the PeopleSoft system. Follow these steps to unlock the account:

  1. Log into CSProd.
  2. Navigate to the User Profiles page.
  3. Search for the user using their GRCC ID number.
    • Note: You must prefix the ID number with a capital W (e.g., W0123456).
  4. Locate the Account Locked Out? checkbox.
  5. To reset the lock status:
    • If not already checked, check the box and click Save.
    • Uncheck the box and click Save again.
  6. Instruct the customer to log out of the MyGRCC portal entirely, log back in, and then click the Online Center tile.
Note for Employee Accounts: If the user is an employee, you may see a message stating: "Warning -- EMPLID = 'xxxxxxx' assigned to another User ID." This is expected behavior for staff/faculty accounts and does not prevent the unlock process.
