STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS


STEP 1

Go to Passport Advantage Online for Customers click sign in and enter your IBMid
and password. If you don’t have an IBMid, click 'Create an IBMid' and fill in
the required fields and submit.
You will be notified when your IBM ID and PW are activated


STEP 2

Return to Passport Advantage Online for Customers and sign in to complete your
PAO access request.

 * Complete a 'Self-nomination' form
   Think of the Self-nomination form as an application for access. It will be
   forwarded to your Site Primary (or Secondary) Contact who will accept or deny
   your request based in large part upon the information you provide.
 * Enter the Site number you wish to access
   If you do not know your Site number, reach out to your Sales organization for
   a copy of a recent Proof-of-Entitlement (PoE), invoice or sales order. All
   these documents should include your PAO Site number.
 * Provide a Business Justification explaining why you need PAO Site access.
   For example:
   “I need to purchase software”
   “I need to renew S&S”
   “I need to download software”
   “I need to generate reports or view proof of entitlements”

Your business justification helps your Site Primary Contact assign you the right
role(s) and grant you the application privileges you need.

For more on PAO roles, applications and use privileges take a look at Key
Contacts


STEP 3

Submit

Your request for access will be forwarded to your PAO Primary Contact (sometimes
referred to as your Site admin) for approval.
