Two Factor Authentication

How Two-Factor Authentication Works

Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security by requiring not just your password, but also a unique code generated by an authentication app.

Time-Based One-Time Passwords

- The code you see in your authenticator app is time-based.
- It refreshes automatically every 30 seconds.
- You don’t need to request a new code manually, your app generates it continuously.
- Each code is valid for a short window and can only be used once.

Frequency of Use

Depending on how your Huge ERP account is configured, you may be prompted to enter a new code:

  • Once per day/week/month
  • Only when logging in from a new device or location

What You Need to Know

  • Keep your authenticator app installed and accessible on your device.
  • If you lose access to your app or device, you’ll need to contact support to reset your Two-Factor Authentication setup.
  • The code is tied to your device and account, no one else can use it.
