Supplement B Reverification for an employee outside Madison area  An I-9 Coordinator can send a link to a proxy representative to complete the Supplement B Reverification electronically. Workday does not allow a link to complete the Supplement B Reverification. Workday uses the term remote and Authorized Representative.   A paper Supplement B Reverification must be completed by an Authorized Representative. The I-9 Coordinator must create an External Record and upload the paper Supplement B to the External Record (see next line).   I-9 Coordinator 
Creating a Record  There is no process for creating an External Record.    I-9 Coordinators can create an External Record of Form I-9 data.   An External Record of Form I-9 data can be entered in Workday.   I-9 Coordinator

Access  I-9 Coordinators receive access by submitting a New User Request Form to OHR Compliance.  I-9 Coordinators receive access by being assigned or inheriting the security role.   The I-9 Coordinator security role is assigned at the sup org level. If not assigned to a subordinate organization, the role is inherited automatically by those organizations. The role has transactional access limited to the assigned or inherited supervisory organizations.   I-9 Coordinator 
Training  All I-9 Coordinators are required to register and pass a quiz to gain access to HireRight.  I-9 Coordinators will not be required to register and pass a quiz to gain access to Workday.  There will no longer be a training to gain access.  I-9 Coordinator 
New User Request Form  Supervisors are required to submit a form to OHR Compliance if a new I-9 Coordinator needs access.  A form is not required as the I-9 Coordinator role is assigned or inherited.   While the form is not required to gain access to Workday, if a new I-9 Coordinator requires View Only access to HireRight, the form must be submitted to OHR Compliance.   I-9 Coordinator
