One-Time Password
The One-Time Password feature allows a one-time password (OTP) for a site’s Verifone Commander to be sent to an email address. An OTP may be required to make changes to specific areas within Verifone Configuration Client, such as Manage Users. However, the OTP is only displayed locally on the Verifone Commander or Verifone POS.
Requirements
A valid account with Verifone Commander Central
An active site, onboarded with Verifone Commander Central
Verifone Software Release 53.35+
An active email associate with Verifone Commander Central
Manager access to Verifone Configuration Client.
Configuring OTP Emails
OTP Settings
Log in to the Verifone Commander Central application. In the top right corner of the application, select your account profile icon and select OTP Settings.
Send OTP
If the Send OTP check box is not selected, click on Edit to enable the parameter. Save the changes if they have been made.
The email address cannot be changed as it is the User ID.
Manage Users
Login to Verifone Configuration Client and go to Security > Manage Users. Enter in the OTP when prompted.
Email Address
Enter the Verifone Commander Central email address (the same one as used in the OTP settings) in the User ID Field. Select Save on the User administration form.
As mentioned above in the Requirements section, Verifone Configuration Client users must have a Verifone Commander Central user ID to receive OTPs by email.
