You are personally responsible for recording your agreed working hours completely and correctly.

Please note that you should add working hours/reasons for absence in good time before your departure date. After leaving, access to the time recording system is no longer possible.

In the event of an inspection by Customs, Division 1 administrators may provide printouts of the required monthly journals for Customs.

• Payment function with the electronic purse at the Studentenwerk acceptance points as well as the library (fees/charges, print/copy jobs)

If you have several jobs, you can use printing cards to account for the use of the multifunction printers in a differentiated manner via different financial and cost centers. 

You can enter your different times in the time recording system and make a note in the comments field which job these times relate to.

Electronic access is operated via Dienstausweis (staff ID card) or Zutrittsausweis (access pass), for certain areas you will still need a chip card.

Access rights are requested at Division 4 with the "Electronic access rights request form".

For further information please read the "Information and terms of use for keys and electronic access passes".

So-called "access passes" can be issued to external service providers and lecturers, for example. They replace the red chips. Access passes look similar to the other CampusCards at the University of Oldenburg but their function is limited to allowing electronic access.

Access passes can be requested at Division 4.

If data re. your card has changed or if the access pass has been lost or was stolen, please contact Dezernat 4 - Gebäudemanagement (), stating the CampusCard ID of the access pass concerned.

For job-related copying, printing, and scanning using your staff ID card multifunction printers are available across all university locations including the library. Billing is handled via the respective cost and fund center stored on the card. Starting from mid-September 2021, the multifunction printers will switch to being operated with the CampusCard. For more information, please consult the respective IT Services website (German only).

For private copying, printing and scanning, which is only possible in the library and is charged via the electronic wallet (“Geldbörsenfunktion”) of the CampusCard, you will find further information on the websites of the BIS.

You will need a print card if:

• You want to print across different cost/finance centers, e.g., in a third-party funded project,
• you do not have a staff ID card, e.g. as an external lecturer, but you still want to use the print, copy, scan function.

If you have multiple employments at the university and/or need to charge print jobs to different cost/fund centres, you will need a print card ("Printkarte"). Please request this additional card via the "Application for a print card" at Division 1. 

Print cards look similar to the other CampusCards at the University of Oldenburg but their function is limited to allowing job-related printing, copying and scanning. Print cards can also be used at the multifunction printers in the library.

Print cards are issued to

• Employees, if printing/copying is to be billed via cost and financial centers other than the one stored on the staff ID card,
• other persons not employed by the university, e.g. external lecturers, emeritus professors, hospital employees, who nevertheless need to be able to print/copy via university cost and financial centers at the request of a unit.

A separate print card must be used for each additional cost/finance centre.
Print cards can be requested at Division 1 via the "Application for a print card".
The "Information and terms of use for print cards" apply. 

Please also note the information on data protection.

You place your staff ID card in front of the reader of the Studentenwerk Oldenburg or the library for the duration of the payment process. The amount is then deducted contactlessly from the credit on your CampusCard’s chip.

You can make cashless payments with the CampusCard at all Studentenwerk acceptance points (e.g. in the dining halls and cafeterias). You will also still be able to pay cash there.

In the library, all payments - for fees and charges as well as for private copies and printouts - can only be settled with the CampusCard.

The current balance of your electronic wallet is displayed at the cash desks of the Studentenwerk Oldenburg and at all CampusCard top-up machines.

Before you block your staff ID card or have it blocked, have your credit paid out, if possible. According to the Studentenwerk's General Terms of Use for the payment function of the CampusCard, the following applies:

• As long as your staff ID card is active (i.e., not blocked), you can have your balance paid out in cash at any time at a Studentenwerk cafeteria cashier by presenting your card.
• If your staff ID card is blocked, you may request a refund of remaining credit from the Studentenwerk Oldenburg. The relevant form will be provided here shortly. Refunds are currently made by bank transfer.
• As a rule, you are only entitled to a refund of your remaining electronic wallet balance at the Studentenwerk Oldenburg if are able to present your card.
• If your staff ID card has been stolen or lost, the Studentenwerk will generally not refund any remaining balance.

If you have any questions regarding payment or refund of credit, please contact the Studentenwerk Oldenburg directly:
