Configure your multifactor authentication settings

After multifactor authentication is turned on for your payroll you must define how often you will require users to enter their verification code.

For optimal security, it is strongly recommended to:

  • Keep Powerpay user “Days to Remember” set to 0 days, ensuring MFA is required at every login

  • Periodically review MFA settings and audit logs to maintain compliance and security standards

Note: The value selected applies to all users including Powerpay users and employees logging into Self Service.

To change the default value, contact your Managed Team.

  1. Go to the User & Contact Mgmt page.Closed From the Company menu, select User & Contact Mgmt.

  2. In the list of users, click the in the row for the user whose information you want to modify.

  3. Expand the Multifactor Authentication settings (MFA) section.

  4. Select the number of Days to Remember Users.

    Setting the value to 0 (zero) means that users will be required to enter their verification code each time they log in.

  5. Click Save.
