A user needs to be active in CHRS in order for an ARF to be submitted on their behalf. It may take a few business days for an employee's record to be activated/updated in the system. ASI and ASC employees will need to contact CMS Security to request that a profile be created for them in the CHRS system. View what information CMS Security needs to set up an employee profile.
