UAR integration | eqube
The UAR tool has made it much easier and faster for Programs to add, modify, and remove Teamcenter user access in the Organizations it supports. UAR also reduced the manual touch time for both the approval process and the Teamcenter Admins. Once access approval is obtained the typical time to account creation/modification has been reduced form days/hours to minutes/seconds.
