When logging into the system for the first time after TOTP has been activated on the user's role, the user must first follow these steps:
:# If user has TOTP enabled on their account, they will be presented with the following screen the next time they log in: <br /> [[File:MFASetupTOTP.png|thumb|none|800px|TOTP Setup Page.setup page with instructions]]
:# Follow the instructions listed on the screen. Start by installing an authenticator app on your mobile device. 
:# On your mobile device, open the authenticator app and select the option to add a new device or scan a QR code. Each app will have different actions. <br /> [[File:ScanQR.jpg|thumb|none|800px| Interface for Google Authenticator]]:# The app may prompt you for a QR code or a setup key. Back on your SmartSimple login MFA setup page, click the button labeled Clicking the button '''Show TOTP Key and QR Code'''.
