When logging into the AutoStore Service Portal, you will be prompted to identify yourself via another form of authentication.

It is recommended to use one of the following authenticator apps:

The first time you have entered your username and password after MFA has been activated, you will see the screen below.

  1. Select “Choose Another Verification Method” for registering and logging in with any authenticator besides Salesforce Authenticator, e.g. the Microsoft Authenticator App.
    1. NOTE: If you are logged in to Salesforce at the time of MFA activation, you will be logged out and required to enter a verification code from your Authenticator App.

  2. On the next screen, choose “Use verification codes from an authenticator app”, and select “Continue”.
  3. On your cell phone:
    1. Download and open the Authenticator App (Microsoft or Google)

      2. Note: Every time yo use a new browser (Chrome, Firefox, IE, etc.) or device, you will be prompted to enter two codes from the app. This is an extra security measure. Next time you will only need one code.
