Use Cases Supported

  • This item requires description of use cases supported, which is the following:
  • User can set up multi-factor authentication at user menu->MFA Management (and then follow on screen instructions). When a user (that has configured multi-factor authentication) logins to OpenEMR, user will be required to pass multi-factor authentication. Administrator can see which users are using multi-factor authentication at top menu->Administration->Users (The MFA column in the table shown states 'yes' if the specified user is using multi-factor authentication).
