This article is for Paymasters, Primary Group users, Primary Partner users and Primary Affiliate users.
Note: You only need to disable two-factor authentication (2FA) for a user if the user is unable to log into iPayroll. If the user can log into iPayroll, they can disable their own 2FA. See Disable or reset two-factor authentication and Disable or reset two-factor authentication in the Kiosk on a smartphone. |
Disabling 2FA essentially means removing the 2FA from the user's iPayroll account.
If the user can't log into iPayroll, you will need to remove 2FA from their account on their behalf. The user can then set up 2FA again, if required.
Note: If 2FA is compulsory for a user, you will need to reset two-factor authentication for a user. |
