PittNet Wi-Fi and wired service will be intermittently interrupted on floors in both Alumni Hall and the Barco Law Building between Wednesday, July 8, at 7 p.m. and 7 a.m. on Thursday, July 9. Users may experience one or more rolling outages — typically for one to two hours — per floor during this window. The team will monitor progress and post updates to https://status.pitt.edu if significant changes or delays occur.
This work is part of Pitt Digital's network modernization initiative to install nearly 4,000 new Wi-Fi access points and upgrade wired network connections across the Pittsburgh campus. Learn more at https://digital.pitt.edu/wifi.
Pitt Digital will disable Active Directory entries — records that manage device authentication and access to University resources — that have not been used in six months or more. This annual cleanup, developed in collaboration with the University’s Internal Audit department, is part of our ongoing process for keeping the directory current and reducing security exposure.
Additional information on the cleanup is available in the “Unused Computer Objects” section of our Security Remediation Guidance for IT Administrators article, found at https://services.pitt.edu.
This change should have little to no impact on faculty and staff. In rare cases, a user may attempt to log in with a device that has not connected to the Pitt domain in six months or more. If that happens, the device will be unable to connect, and you should call the Technology Help Desk at +1-412-624-HELP (4357) to have the entry re-enabled.
Separately, Microsoft will perform brief maintenance on Active Directory from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. that evening. This is unrelated to the cleanup and is not expected to affect users. Pitt Digital will be actively engaged with Microsoft throughout the maintenance window. In the unlikely event an issue arises, the system will be returned to its original configuration and updates will be posted here. Posted on

PRISM, the University of Pittsburgh’s enterprise financial system, will be taken offline and unavailable from Tuesday, June 30, at 5:30 p.m. through Wednesday, July 1, at 6 a.m.
The maintenance is necessary to facilitate the processes that begin the closing of FY26 and the opening of FY27 within the PRISM system. The maintenance period was scheduled by Pitt Digital in consultation with Financial Operations and the Office of the Controller. The dates were selected to minimize disruption to users.
Users should exit the system prior to 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 30, and not attempt to re-enter the system until after 6 a.m. on Wednesday, July 1. Your access will be terminated without notice at 5:30 p.m. on June 30, and all processes (printing, faxing, reporting, data entry, etc.) must be completed and saved prior to that time. Any data not saved or processes that are not completed by 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 30, will be lost.
Important Reminder: • As of July 1, 2026, if you are entering GL transactions for the JUN-26 period, you MUST change the default period from JUL-26 to JUN-26.
To ensure a smooth transition, PRISM users in the Office of the Controller, Financial Operations, and the Office of Human Resources have participated in testing. Pitt Digital will monitor progress and actively engage with the PRISM vendor (OATC) during the maintenance window. In the unlikely event that an issue or problem arises, the vendor will revert PRISM to its original configuration and Pitt Digital will post an update to https://status.pitt.edu.
