Accessing Manager Self Service
• ESR Manager Self-Service requires a Smartcard and a Smartcard reader.
• Once you have your smartcard, or if you already have one, you’d insert into the reader.
• A pop-up screen would appear, and you’d enter your passcode.

There are eight areas of functionality in MSS, some of which you may already use in Supervisor Self Service. At RCHT we’ll be using the following areas in Manager Self Service:
• Manager – for notifications and actions awaiting attention.
• My Team Assignment – Assignment Changes, Change Hours, Flexible Working and End Employment.
• Reporting – access to ESR Business Intelligence (BI).
