Log into the FCDO portal via the web login page, (requires registration first time which is free and instantaneous) enter your username and password. This is your first form of authentication. 2. You will then be presented with a QR code to scan. This requires a mobile phone with the Google or Microsoft Authenticator App. 3. Upon scanning the QR code with Google or Microsoft Authenticator you are presented with a code. 4. The code must be entered into the Token Number field within the allotted time. You must then select the \"Submit\" button on the right hand side of the screen to complete the second form of authentication which completes the Jaggaer login process. 5. For all future logins you will not be required to scan the QR code and instead can navigate to the Google or Microsoft Authenticator App and enter the current token into the Token Number field.",
