Setup eSuite MFA Without a Smartphone

Tags eSuite MFA

Overview: 

eSuite requires that accounts are setup with Multifactor Authentication (MFA). Phone call and text message methods are not available, so this must be configured using an authenticator app on your smartphone. If you don't have a smartphone, you can follow the below instructions to instead use a desktop application (OTP Manager).

Please note: If you do use the desktop application, you will only be able to sign into eSuite from the computer you configured it on. Alternatively, if you use a smartphone you will be able to sign into eSuite from anywhere as long as you have your smartphone on you.
