Buyer End User (eReqs and basket workflow users only): Multi Factor Authentication for logins

Gary Leach Updated by Gary Leach

MFA for your Purchasing Account

If you login directly to Purchasing (formerly Advanced Marketplace) you will be required to setup and use Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) via either a smartphone app or a browser extension as part of the login process.

When MFA has been enabled on your account, after entering your username and password as normal, the following screen will appear.

If you don't have an authenticator app installed on your smartphone, please download and install one in line with the instructions on screen. Then follow the on screen instructions to setup your account.

If you choose to use a browser extension instead of a smartphone app then click the option 'can't scan the bar code', the following screen will appear. Add your chosen browser extension to your browser and follow the on-screen instructions.

Any authenticator app or browser extension can be used.

Once this has been setup, on each subsequent login you will need to use the app or extension to obtain your One Time Passcode to login securely.

What if I lose my setup in my authenticator app or browser extension?

If you cannot generate a passcode in the app/extension having previously set it up, you will need to request a reset of you MFA passcodes for the system. After a reset you will be required to setup the account in the app again as per the original process.

How To Request a Reset

Please contact your Purchasing system administrators to request this.
