    Updates to eBuy and the FAS ID
    Over the weekend of Oct. 10, 2020, the supplier side of GSA’s eBuy platform was updated for security purposes to a two-step, multi-factor authentication (MFA) process using GSA FAS ID - a secure, centralized identity management system that lets users access many GSA applications with one email and password. GSA FAS ID was created as part of our overall IT modernization effort and has already been implemented on the FAS Sales Reporting Portal (SRP), GSA Advantage Purchase Order Portal, GSA Vendor Portal, and the Mass Mod Portal.

    Do you have any instructions about how to add new points of contact for eBuy access? I'm not sure how to do this in the new FAS ID system.
