Logging into AFAS Online for the first time using two-factor authentication.

You need a new password for the new sign-on method using two-factor authorisation. You will create this password in this step. It is easiest, but not compulsory, to immediately download AFAS Pocket afterwards and to link it.

Note:

If you cannot carry out these steps, read the separate explanation about the activation email.

This page does not apply with regard to single sign-on. The Profit administrator in your organisation will specify how you need to sign on with regard to single sign-on (SSO).
