It does not seem logical to link a prior SAM account, it is an Institution specific system to ensure that a specific institution is verified to do perform various activities with the Federal Gov't.  Doing what is requested would only cause confusion.

I agree. There's no reason to link a SAM account from a previous institution.

Just say no!  We have multiple points of contact, but each is Board approved to act on behalf of the university re federal assistance.

Subject: [RESADM-L] SAM registration and the commons

Do any of you have multiple points of contact for SAM and/or  era commons?
We have a new position in Advancement that is asking to be on both systems.
When I mentioned that she didn't need access to these, she said she wanted to link to her old SAM account that she previously had with another organization. Any comments?
