Setting Up a Verification Phone Number

Enable a verification phone number on Oracle Textura Payment Management regardless of your role to better protect your account from unauthorized password changes. Additionally, having a verification phone number will provide the ability to retrieve your username.

It is recommended that you use a phone that supports SMS for your verification phone number so that you can receive SMS notifications from the system.

To set up a verification phone number:

Navigate to the Edit User Page
When setting up an account, the Edit User Profile page displays immediately after you create a username and password.
- To change your own profile, choose Edit My Account under your username at the top of any page.
- To change another profile, access this page through the Edit link on the Browse Users page.
From the Verification Phone Number section, select the Setup Verification Number link.
A dialog box appears.
In the dialog box, enter a phone number, and select the Add Phone Number button.
A Verify Identity dialog box appears.
- In the Verify Identity dialog box, select to receive the security code as a text message (SMS) or voice call, and choose the Continue button.
- An Enter Security Code dialog box appears.
- The application sends a 7-digit security code to your phone via text message (SMS), voice call.
In the Enter Security Code dialog box, enter the security code, and choose the Continue button.
The application saves the phone number, and the Edit User page displays only the last four digits.
