Stopping MFA Once Activated
Administrators can configure settings to stop Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) after it has been activated. This functionality applies to both general MFA settings per service and individual settings for specific persons or services.
To stop Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) through general parameters per service, select 52. MFA Multi-Factor Authentication from the System Configuration screen (STRMFA > 81. System Configuration). The Multi-Factor-Authentication screen appears. If N=No is set for a service, MFA will not be applied to that service, even if MFA has been activated.
