Creating EPS Users

Logging in to EPS for the First Time

Maintaining User Information

Once you are logged in to ECMS, you can create EPS users, including one for yourself.

When a user is created, EPS role(s) must be assigned for that user. Roles are also known as in Security Groups EPS. The Security Groups available for selection depend upon  your organization type.

Non PennDOT organizations will mostly have the options of Applicant, Local Government Partner (LGP), and/or Read Only.

·        The  Applicant role will enable them to create and submit permit applications and supplement applications.

·        The LGP role will enable them to create and edit a Local Government profile for your organization as well as view all applications within EPS.  

·        The Read-Only role will also give them the ability to view all applications within EPS.
