Common error messages
Account is no longer active
This error may occur if:
- Your email was recently changed in Humanforce
- Your email change is pending approval

Do not have permission to use the Humanforce App
You may see this if your role/access was updated to revoke app permissions.
To resolve:
- Have your manager check your access level, ensuring the mobile app is enabled.
- Have your manager check your Location, Department and Access Level are enabled under the mobile app sync.
- If they do not have access to this, they'll need to ask your Humanforce administrator or log a support ticket

To resolve:
- On your mobile device, go to Settings > Face ID & Passcode

- Restart the app and try signing in with biometrics again
For any other errors, please have your manager contact support.
