Monsoon has been retired for the new City of Prescott Employee Portal

With lots of joy, it’s time to retire the current employee portal on Monsoon for the new kid on the block that will reside on SharePoint. 

You can access the Employee Portal from any browser and from any location using a desktop computer, laptop, tablet, or phone with an Internet connection.  

Go here https://prescottazgov.sharepoint.com/ and sign in if you aren’t already signed into your email using your City of Prescott email address and password the same way you would sign into your Office 365 email. 

Once you login and get to the home page for the first time, I would recommend “Following” the City of Prescott Employee Portal by clicking the star icon in the top-right next to “Not Following”. 

Everything that was located on Monsoon (old employee portal) is also located on this new Employee Portal. If you see anything that needs to be updated, changed, or added, please submit a ticket here https://prescottazgov.sharepoint.com/SitePages/Website-Update-Request-Form.aspx. This is a new form for submitting any website changes which creates a ticket in HappyFox (IT Ticketing System). 

Changes

Some changes that you may notice:

1)  Employee Alerts which can be viewed on the home page and also can be seen here https://prescottazgov.sharepoint.com/Lists/EmployeeAlerts/Status.aspx. This will be used to provide Employees important information about something going on with the City that can be viewed quickly.

2)  Sub-sites are located on the very top menu which includes Employee Alerts, Employee News, Benefit News, Health and Wellness News and Birthdays. All of these subsites are integrated in the main Employee Portal site which feed into the Employee News section on the home page and also the Human Resources page here https://prescottazgov.sharepoint.com/SitePages/Human-Resources.aspx.

3)  Departments pages are in the main top navigation which have basic information about each department/division. If you see anything that needs to be updated, changed, or added, please submit a ticket here https://prescottazgov.sharepoint.com/SitePages/Website-Update-Request-Form.aspx.

4)  Information pages will be where you can find things like Forms and Documents, Employee Self Service (ESS), Enterprise ERP Hub, GIS Mapping and others.
