SEDDAS Overview

The New York State Education Department (NYSED) Delegated Account System (SEDDAS) is a tool provided to staff of NYSED program offices and designated school and/or district personnel to create and manage user accounts for their own employees rather than going through NYSED. The SEDDAS application can be accessed by logging in on NYSED Business Portal at http://portal.nysed.gov/.

Some administrative titles like the CEO, CIO and CFO need to have the account name and contact information match with what is currently on file in SEDREF for the same BEDS code location or security checks will block access.

The CEO account must be the first account for a BEDS code location to be setup correctly or staff account access may be blocked due to security checks that require the CEO account to have access first to an application and/or form. 

The CEO name and contact information of an institutional location must be up to date in the SEDREF system before the current CEO SEDDAS account is created. There is an automated process that will automatically creates the SEDDAS account overnight for the CEO of record when SEDREF is updated with a new CEO. The process will copy the previous CEO account access and then disables the former CEO SEDDAS account. The new CEO can create or manage other accounts at the same institutional location. You can verify what NYSED has on file about your institution and your institution's CEO here SEDREF - Core Information on SED Institutions.

 

If you need to submit administrative updates for your institution:

Administrative positions can be updated by the current CEO and CIO on file in SEDREF with their account if they have access to any data collection in the IRS Data Exchange (IDEx) application through the "My Contacts" feature in the top of the IRS Data Exchange (IDEx) application pages when opened.

Updates for the CEO and CFO positions can take a few business days because NYSED staff need to be review request first due to the security requirements and due the volume of CEO updates submitted statewide. The automated account process for CEO accounts will execute after NYSED staff have applied the update in SEDREF.

All other administrative position updates will be applied when submitted.

Updates submitted can be verified by querying your BEDS code/SED code at SEDREF - Core Information on SED Institutions.
