# Ressource Beantragen (Requesting Resources)

**Ressource Beantragen** is the electronic, standardized application process for requesting IT resources and specialized accounts at the Universität Greifswald via the [[ums]] (Account Management system). 

Unlike simple account creation, this centralized workflow treats the requested item as a "resource" with a specific lifecycle consisting of request, approval, extension, and deletion. It is used to acquire various technical assets and services required for work or study.

## Available Resources
Users submit a resource application via the UMS to obtain specific technical assets. Examples include:

- **Groupware Resources**: 
    - **[[gruppenkalender]]** (Group Calendar), which is requested via the `groupware_cal` resource type.
    - **[[ressourcen-kalender]]** for managing shared rooms or equipment.
- **Accounts**:
    - **Functional Accounts**: Shared accounts for email or external web access.
- **Other IT Assets**:
    - IP addresses
    - Web space
    - Various other university-provided technical resources.

## Application Process

### How to Apply
Users initiate the request by navigating to `Meine Ressourcen > Ressource beantragen` within the [[ums]].

### Provisioning Workflow (Groupware)
When a request for a Groupware resource (such as a group calendar) is submitted and approved:
1. The [[universitatsrechenzentrum-urz]] provisions/creates the resource.
2. Administrative control/rights are granted to the requester.
3. The requester then manages the specific permissions and properties of that resource.

## Application Requirements
Applicants must specify the required resource and provide necessary details. For specific resource types, additional requirements apply:

### External Domains
When requesting a [[fremddomain]] (a domain other than `uni-greifswald.de`):
- A justification must be entered in the description field.
- The designated approver must be an employee of the **Rektorat** or the relevant **Dekanat**.

### Functional Accounts
For specific resources like functional accounts for the [[alternativer-webserver]], additional context must be provided in the description field to ensure correct provisioning.
