A Sage account is a login that allows Sage users to access their Sage products and services with just one login. For example, you could use the same login details for Sage HR, Sage Payroll, Sage Accounting etc.
Users with a Sage account for Sage HR can also enable two-factor authentication (2FA), which enhances security. To be able to access this 2FA feature, you need to enable Sage accounts for your company.
📎NOTE: Once you enable Sage accounts, you can't undo this.
Click on your name in the top right, then click Settings.
On the settings menu, click Security, then click Sage accounts and two-factor authentication.
Under Sage accounts, click Enable Sage accounts.
All users in your Sage HR company will receive an email with instructions to create their Sage account if they don't have one already. Alternatively, the next time they log in they'll be prompted to create a Sage account.
📎NOTE: If a user already has an existing Sage account, they'll be prompted to log in with their existing login details rather than create a Sage account. If they can't remember their password, they can use the Forgot password? option.
After they do this, the next time they log in they'll need to enter their newly created password via the Sage account login page.
Once Sage accounts is enabled, you can see on the security page that it shows as enabled and the option to enable 2FA appears.
