The OTP is generated by a 2FA application installed on the user’s smartphone, e.g., Google Authenticator.

Access with 2FA is not available on the built-in customer self-care portal that comes packaged with PortaBilling. Don’t enable 2FA for individuals that use this portal.

Select one of the following options in the dropdown list:

  • As defined by the customer class  –  the option configured for the customer class is used.
  • Yes – select this option to enable 2FA.
  • No – select this option to disable 2FA.

If a user loses access to the 2FA application, click Reset 2FA key.
