To add NetSuite to the Microsoft Authenticator app, you'll need to scan a QR code or manually enter a setup key during the 2FA setup process within NetSuite, then configure the app to generate verification codes for your NetSuite login.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

1. Initiate 2FA Setup in NetSuite:

Navigate to your NetSuite account and access the 2FA setup options, typically found under your user settings or security settings.
Select "Authenticator App" as your preferred method for 2FA.

2. Scan the QR Code or Enter Setup Key:

QR Code: Open the Microsoft Authenticator app on your phone and select "Add Account" or "Add Account".
Choose "Scan QR Code" and point your phone's camera at the QR code displayed in NetSuite.
Manual Entry: If you prefer, you can manually enter the setup key displayed in NetSuite into the Microsoft Authenticator app.
The app will then add NetSuite as a registered account and display a time-sensitive code.

3. Complete the NetSuite Setup:

Enter the verification code generated by the Microsoft Authenticator app into the NetSuite login screen.

Follow any further instructions provided by NetSuite to complete the 2FA setup, including setting up backup codes.
Once complete, you will be able to use the Microsoft Authenticator app to generate verification codes for future NetSuite logins.
