Axess

Axess is where members of the Stanford community review and update information in their electronic records. All faculty, staff, graduate students and postdoctoral fellows are required to sign a Patent and Copyright Agreement, the SU-18 form, which is signed electronically in Axess as a condition of either employment or enrollment at Stanford University. Using Axess, students perform functions such as: add, drop, and evaluate classes; update addresses; review grades; request official transcripts; review degree requirements status; review and accept financial aid awards; and check their University bill. Faculty, instructors, and advisors can submit grades; review evaluations; and monitor advisees. Staff members can monitor financial and benefit information and register for training courses.

CRISP tracks clinical trial events and is used by both the department Financial Specialist and Study Coordinators along with the Sponsored Receivables Management (SRM).  Invoices need to be processed through CRISP before SRM receives and posts payments.  This is for both invoiceable items and patient care costs processed through Case Report Forms (CRFs).
