Reset a User's 2-Step Login

This guide assists administrators in addressing issues related to 2-Step Login verification codes and phone number updates. Non-employee users can reset their settings only through the Settings menu, while employees have additional options via their profiles. The guide outlines two primary methods for resetting 2-Step Login: 1. **Reset via Settings**: Administrators navigate to Settings > Login Settings, select the user needing the reset, and complete the process by clicking Reset. The user will set up authentication upon their next login. 2. **Reset via Employee Profile**: For employees, the reset can be performed from their profile action menu under Security. Confirmation is required to finalize the reset. Additionally, the guide addresses scenarios for administrators who may get locked out of their accounts.

What if I (admin) get locked out of my account with 2-Step Login enabled?

  1. If another admin is available, please ask them to reset your 2-Step Login.
  2. If no other admin is available, use the backup codes you created when setting up your 2-Step Login.
  3. If neither option is possible, please contact our Customer Support team via phone. Written approval from a Full Admin user will be required for verification.
