    Hi,

    can someone help me please, I am having issues with the Multi-Factor Authenticator. I've scanned the code multiple times and type in the code and it still gave me "Invalid code" until I exceeded the amount of attempts and have to wait about 1hr….. I've tried using my mobile number but it kept saying my number is Invalid. I spoke to 4 people on this and its still haven't found a fix.

    Hi @tnooapii

    Is this the first time you're setting up MFA for your Reckon Accounts Hosted account or have you previously had it enabled successfully?

    Are you using the Google Authenticator app? If so, click on the menu button ➡️ Settings ➡️ Time Correction for Codes ➡️ Sync Now

    Once that's done try setting up your MFA again and let us know if its successful or if you're still running into trouble.

    Hi @Rav ,

    No, not my first time I've been using Reckon for quite some time now. I've tried uninstalling the authentication app "Google Authenticato" etc…

    But I followed the instructions you said above…its working now !!!…

    THANK YOU !!!…
