Posted on Fri. Sep. 30th at 9:55 am
The MyPack Portal tools upgrade will occur over the weekend of October 8-9, 2011. This upgrade includes a portal tools upgrade (in support of the Finance, HR and SIS upgrades scheduled for 2012) along with the implementation of a new log-in process (Shibboleth authentication).

To complete the upgrade, MyPack Portal will be unavailable from Saturday, October 8th at 6:00 a.m. until Sunday, October 9th at 1:00 pm. During this period, Financials, HR, SIS, including all self service functions and other portal delivered applications will not be accessible.

post Printing in the MyPack Portal
Posted on Wed. Nov. 24th at 1:40 pm
With the recent MyPack Portal upgrade, NC State changed the underlying "Peopletools" software that PeopleSoft uses to provide menus, pages and printing.  In doing so, some browser print settings have made printouts from PeopleSoft either too small to read or incomplete.  Here are current work arounds for two web browsers - Internet Explorer and Firefox (Mozilla).
