MOTP GSPN On the Job Training

OJT: MOTP GSPN


Introduction This document is intended for Admin technicians who need to set up the MOTP device.
Read through this guide before attempting to create a new MOTP device. Launch date
is set for 11/26/2024.

Information Prerequisites
 Only Admins (not regular users) can be assigned to generate the one-time
password
 Multiple users can’t generate the password
 Set up will delete any previous person previously able to create passwords
 Just like a user can’t have multiple GSPN accounts, it’s the same with MOTP
 If the MOTP Admin is not at work, a new Admin user needs to be approved and
the both accounts updated

Resolution Set up a new MOPT user in GSPN (must already have Admin privileges)

New MOPT User

Step Action
1. GSPN > Admin > MOTP Management

Error Messages

1. If you get an error message, your GSPN ID is not assigned to access MOTP.
Contact your CS Portal Admin for access

2. You can’t access the MOTP until access is approved

FAQs
Q. What to do if the MOTP user is absent?
A. Since only one user is authorized to create a MOTP at a time, if the main MOTP
user is absent an alternative user will have to be set up.

1. CS Portal > Business > Administrator > IMEI Writing Authorization > Admin OTP

 The updated user must also be an Admin User so you have to replace that
user, then request a new one > have it approved

2. When the alternate user tries to open MOTP menu, GSPN will ask the user to
request the MOTP. Since this can’t be done, you have to request a new MOTP
authority and have it approved

Physical Condition
Overview
Overview
The first step in warranty eligibility is to verify that the customers device does not have any physical damage that will
void their warranty status.

Flip and Fold Devices


For foldable devices you will need to take a deeper look at the device to determine if there is any physical damage
that will void the device's warranty status. Similar to the Galaxy S devices, we want to ensure the back glass, outer
display, camera deco, etc. are all free from damage on the outside of the device. Detailed examples found on slides 7
through 25.

Once you have inspected the outside of a foldable device, please go to slide 12 for a more in-depth analysis on the
inner display inspection process.

Galaxy S and A Series


For non-foldable devices, any degree of physical damage will void the warranty. This includes cracked or broken back
glass, camera deco, front glass, or the LCD being cracked underneath. Detailed examples found on slides 27 through
33.

For both repair types, techs should also be careful to not damage or break the screen during disassembly to avoid
risk of chargebacks.

IMPORTANT – You must remove the film protector from a flip or fold device to properly inspect the display.
Failure to do so will impact your ability to make the proper determination which could result in a charge back.

Once you have verified that there is no damage to the deco or p-cap we will need to inspect the display itself.

This image portrays how the different layers of a foldable display are
laid out and why it is so important to remove the screen protector
first.

Once removed, you will then be able to fully inspect the PL


(protective layer) and have a better look at any potential UTG (ultra
thin glass) or LCD cracks underneath.

The next few slides will help you understand the different variations of screen issues on the
UTG (Ultra Thin Glass).

A device that has a crack in the Protective Film (PF) may look like it has a crack in the UTG.
To determine which it is, follow these steps:
1. Remove the Protective Film
2. Remove any remaining adhesive
3. If the UTG is normal, recommend replacing the Protective Film

Samsung Warranty Determination: Customer Talking Points
Use this guide when talking with a customer about the warranty determination at your store.

Remember to use soft skills and express sympathy and understanding with the customer, but maintain
confidence in your decision to determine their warranty status based on condition inspection. You are the tech
expert responsible for determining a device’s warranty status based on condition.

What NOT to say to a customer: What TO share with a customer:

x “We don’t do in-warranty Samsung repairs” 1. Explain the differences in how In-Warranty validation
works: In-Warranty by Date versus In-Warranty based on

There are two types of In Warranty validations on your Samsung

2. Explain to the Customer How the Validation Applies to Their Device

x "[Customer Name] Unfortunately, even though your device


is In Warranty based on date of purchase, based on the
current condition of your device, this device cannot be
covered as an In-Warranty repair. (Show the customer the
device, point to areas of designation and explain)."

x "We are happy to repair your device still, but it would not be
covered Under Warranty. "

x "I understand that this is probably upsetting and confusing,


but my warranty determination decision is based off the
condition of the device today, as outlined based on the
checkpoints we are given from Samsung."

3. If a Customer Pushes Back on the Out of Warranty Decision

x "I understand your disappointment and frustration."

x "While your device is covered from the purchase date, it is not


covered based on its current condition. We consider this
decision carefully based on the device’s appearance and state.
Unfortunately, due to [Damage/Condition], this device is not
covered. "

If a Customer mentions Samsung Reference #

team to make them aware of your situation. However, the

Asurion_Internal_Use_Only
Samsung Warranty Determination: Validation Point Information
Note for the tech (not customer-facing):
Two primary validation points will assist you with determining the correct warranty status:

x 1st validation point is the inspection of the deco and p-caps on the device.

o If the device has any damage to the deco or damage to the p-caps, regardless of what symptom the device is experiencing – warranty
determination by the store should always be Out of Warranty.

If the device does NOT have any damage to the deco or NO damage to the p-caps – the store should proceed with an inspection of the display
itself.

x 2nd validation point will be inspecting the display itself, which will involve two considerations.

o Cosmetic imperfections examples


ƒ Ex) Fingernail indents, pitting, scratching, etc.
o Symptoms of the device
ƒ Ex) No touch on the display, black splotches on the LCD, missing image, etc).

If the devices’ symptoms are on or near the cosmetic imperfections, the warranty determination should be considered Out of Warranty.

If the cosmetic imperfections are separate from the device symptoms (EG: no touch on the upper portion of the display, but fingernail indent on
the bottom half of the display) then the warranty determination should be considered In Warranty.

Fold / Flip Screen Protector Quick Reference Guide

This guide is intended to be a trimmed down version of the full guide which can be found
here: https://portal.ubif.net/kbase/article/10509. The full guide is recommended for those who
are new to using Portal and checking-in devices.

Collect the customer information and check-in the device as OOW (Out-of-Warranty)
o Before you begin, verify if the customer’s device is In-Warranty by date.
o Customers outside the warranty date should be charged $19.99 MSRP for the
protector replacement.
o Run IQC with the customer in store to share the results for transparency before check-in
o Once you’ve verified the customer is within their warranty period, you will still need to
check-in the device as OOW (Out-of-Warranty)
o DO NOT ever check-in screen protector replacements as IW (In-Warranty)!
o Click on Select Device Symptoms and choose the following Symptom Codes
o L1 - Screen Protector
o 14 - Screen Protector
o Symptom 3 can be any choice relevant to the status of the protector
o Under the “ Reason for Out of Warranty Status” menu, select Protection File
o Click on the Out of Warranty button to proceed

Add Protection Film SKU to Portal WO and Create GSPN Ticket


o It’s important to add the parts to the Portal WO before GSPN Ticket creation
o Once parts are attached and IQC is complete you can create the GSPN Ticket
o It’s recommended to only start the GSPN ticket when beginning the screen
protector replacement

Submit the FOC (Free-of-Charge) SAW Request


o On the right side of the Portal WO, open the “Work Order Actions” menu and select Open
SAW Tools
o Under the “Select SAW Type” menu, click on FOC
o If the option for “FOC” is missing, please ensure the device was checked in as
OOW!
o After you select FOC, click on the Submit SAW button
o Portal should confirm with a pop-up stating “SAW request was created successfully”
o Next, click on the View SAW Requests button to confirm the SAW was attached
o The SAW status should read as “Pending” which indicates a Sprinklr ticket will need to be
submitted in order to receive approval.
o Issue Type: Process Requests > SAW > [VOID] Warranty Cost Full Cover
o After submitting the ticket, monitor your email for a response from FSS
o Once FSS confirms the SAW was approved, move to the next step
If the SAW Status shows “Approved” right after attachment, there is no need to submit a Sprinklr ticket.

Attach the Samsung In-Warranty Company


o On the Portal WO, open the “Work Order Actions” menu and select Open SAW Tools
o Click on the View SAW Requests button
o Here you can see the status of your SAW Request which should be marked Approved
o If SAW still shows “Pending” please resubmit or reply back to the Sprinklr Ticket
o Click the green check box that says “Convert to IW” to attach the Samsung In-Warranty
company

Moving the WO to Repaired-RFP


o After completing the Screen Protector replacement, you need to complete Fenrir SVC and
OQC
o When running OQC, you can select “External” since the phone was NOT opened
o Proceed to moving the WO to Repaired-RFP status using the following Defect Codes
o Check “OOW” Box
o Protection File
o Cosmetic
o Protect Film Defect – OOW

If you receive an error when moving the WO to Repaired-RFP, submit a JIRA Ticket right away!

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I facilitate more than one screen protector replacement for the
customer?
A: Samsung allows one free protective film replacement during the manufacturer's warranty period.
Customer's are also eligible for a free replacement within 7-days of a previous film replacement.
Devices outside the warranty will need to be charged for the screen protector.

Q: How much should I charge the customer for a screen protector if the device
is outside the warranty period?
A: MSRP is $19.99 (plus tax)

Q: I do not see the option for “FOC” in the SAW Tools menu, how do I proceed?
A: The most common cause for this is due to the device being checked-in as In-Warranty. Screen
protector replacements must always be checked in as Out-of-Warranty, even if the customer is
within the warranty period. If you accidentally checked the device in as In-Warranty, mark the
Portal Work Order as “Declined-RFP” and recreate the work order.

Q: Do I need to submit a Sprinklr ticket if the SAW Status already shows


“Approved”?
A: No. In some cases, the SAW may be auto-approved for various reasons. It’s recommended to
always check the SAW status right after attachment to check if a Sprinklr ticket is needed.

Q: What if FSS declines the FOC SAW request?


A: If the customer is out of warranty by date, then the customer should be charged for the screen
protector. If this is a customer escalation, please let FSS know of the situation. FSS can check the
customer notes to see if a screen protector was promised by Samsung customer service. In which
case, the SAW can be approved.

Q: Why are we attaching the “Samsung In Warranty” company if the repair is Out
of Warranty?
A: While the protector is covered by Samsung, it’s tracked as an Out-of-Warranty repair. If the
customer returns with an IW issue (blank screen, connection issues, etc.), then the IW ticket will
NOT be tracked as a bounce. This is why it's important to ensure these are checked in correctly
according to the guide. This will not void the customer’s device warranty.

Q: What does the error “Work order cannot be changed to this function” mean?
How do I resolve it?
A: This error indicates that there is a Warranty Error on the GSPN ticket that needs to be resolved
internally. The quickest way to resolve this is to submit the appropriate JIRA Ticket using the link
below. The support agents will provide direction on how to clear the error.
GD Tool: Service Issue IQC Guide

When customers are coming into the store because they are experiencing service issues on Samsung
devices, below are the steps to pull the call/SMS and data drops. This allows us to show the customer
whether the issue is carrier-related or hardware. This is all done in IQC, and we can either print or show the
customer the results depending on where your IQC computer is located.

Open IQC from GSPN and follow the steps to get the device ready.

Connect device and follow prompts on the screen to start


50IQC testing. Select “Connectivity” on the right-hand side.
Select all tests under “Connectivity” and press “Start”

Most tests should run automatically on my devices. Just 51


watch the device and follow any prompts that appear. At the Results
Screen make sure to select “Connectivity" on the left hand side and at the top you will see quick links to the info we need.
Under those tabs will be all the information we need. Most importantly will be “No Service”, “Data Connection issue” and
“Call Drop Data”. This will tell you if the issue is with the carrier or with the device.

52
You can either print the results with the printing icon on the left side of the results screen. Make sure to ONLY print the
pages needed. If not, you will get 20-30 pages printed out.

53
GD Tool: Common Resolutions

o Confirm Fenrir and GD Tool are not both open at the same time.
o They can both “fight” for USB permissions.

Process: Ticketing Overview

Is this a JIRA / Support / Help Desk ticket or an FSS / ZenDesk ticket?


Zendesk is run by the Samsung FSS (Field Service Support). The FSS team can approve error requests and
Exception requests and is the only team capable of doing so. Please keep in mind that depending on the
error you receive, the FSS team/agent may require you to do basic troubleshooting and/or have you
provide screenshots of the errors, the about menu of the device, proof of purchase, etc.

JIRA is run by UBIF Asurion ServiceDesk team and can be escalated to the Samsung Partnership team when
necessary. Stores first step should be to reach out to the ServiceDesk team if you get a portal error. You can
file a ticket using the support tab on portal. The ServiceDesk team is capable of applying requests and
determining warranty errors (WERs). The ServiceDesk team is also capable of answering basic
troubleshooting questions.

63
Process: GSPN & Portal Work Order Errors

[Fenrir] [#] There is no history of FENRIR connection in FUS server.

Description
This error occurs when Fenrir was not executed on the device. Work Orders with this error cannot proceed
to Repaired-RFP until SVC Connection is executed on the device or having a Fenrir Exception approved.
Fenrir [4] and Fenrir[8] are the only 2 errors eligible for Fenrir Exceptions.

Causes
o The device was disconnected from Fenrir prematurely; ensure that Fenrir has finished processing
the SVC connection before disconnecting the cable.
o The device was not recognized by FENRIR. This can occur from a dirty or damaged charging port or
bad charging cable. In rare cases, it’s the device failing to send data to the PC.
o If the error is [Fenrir] [4] that means the binary is not downloaded onto the PC so the update could
not be installed. This is only seen on In-Warranty repairs only.

Solution
Execute Fenrir on the device again. Use “SVC Connection” for BOTH OOW & IW repairs. “S/W Update” is
also required for all IW repairs.

If Fenrir cannot be executed on the device or the customer refused a software update, you can submit a
Fenrir Exception via ZenDesk Ticket Request. Please note that FSS will NOT approve exceptions for Fenrir if
you did not run “SVC Connection” on the device. You will need a screenshot of “SVC Connection” being run
on the device in order to receive approval for this request.

If FSS declines this exception request, you can try reaching out to your designated Samsung rep for a one
time exception.

64
[Fenrir] [8] The PBA UN in Phone is not matched to PBA UN in MPTS.

Description
This error occurs when GSPN believes there is a non-OEM motherboard on the device.

Causes
o The device is an “End-of-Life” device. EoL devices are considered to be S7 series and older.
o The PBA is non-OEM (or being detected as such).

Solution
You can submit a Fenrir Exception via ZenDesk Ticket Request. Include a full screenshot of the error and
ensure the WO is visible in the screenshot.

65
[GCIC] GD Error

Description
This error occurs when Portal has detected a FAIL or MISSING GD Tool Result. Work Orders with this error
cannot proceed to Sale Complete without retesting the device or requesting a GD Exception.

Causes
o IQC was not executed based on the defect code selected upon check-in.
o OQC is showing a FAIL result; OQC will need to be executed on device again
o OQC showing NO GD result. This can occur if the GSPN Ticket was not created when testing was
executed. This can also occur if the WO has not been set to Repair-in-Progress status.
o The WO was not set to Sale Complete before 14 days. It’s important to not let tickets sit unresolved
or opened for more than 24 to 48 hours if possible.

Solution
Execute GD Tool on the device again.

If you cannot resolve this error using the step above, you need to reach out by creating a ZenDesk Ticket
Request. If FSS does not resolve the issue, you can try reaching out to your designated Samsung rep for a
one time exception.

* Help Desk and JIRA Support cannot help with GD Tool/OQC Exception approval. *

66
[GCIC] [OCTA:F]

Description
This error occurs when Portal has detected a FAIL or MISSING GD Tool Result. Work Orders with this error
cannot proceed to Sale Complete without retesting the device or requesting a GD Exception.

Causes
o Fenrir was executed before the OCTA was replaced on the device; execute Fenrir again to resolve
the error.
o Fenrir failed to send the logs to the FUS server; ensure the device is not prematurely disconnected
from Fenrir.
o Fenrir was executed on a previous ticket that was marked Repaired or Sale Complete (even if the
part is no longer attached to the WO).
o The previous ticket is still open/not canceled; if the previous GSPN ticket is not set to Repaired,
cancel the ticket that had this part attached (even if the part is no longer attached to the WO).
o Part was removed from the WO after the status was changed to Repaired-RFP.
o Part was returned into inventory after processing a refund, then reused on another device.

Solution
Execute Fenrir again. If the error persists, replace the OCTA and RMA the current one. After OCTA
replacement, execute Fenrir again to clear the error.

If the above does not resolve the issue, reach out to your Samsung rep to get clarification as to why the
error is occurring. You can also submit a JIRA ticket for clarification on the reasoning behind the error here:
Samsung General Question.

* Outside of the above solutions, there are no workarounds to this error. If the device was released before
this error was resolved, you need to mark this Declined-RFP and absorb the cost of parts used *

67
[GCIC] Not created new job.

Description
The error occurs when a pending ticket for the device exists on GSPN. The GSPN Ticket can be linked to
UBREAKIFIX or another Samsung service provider.

Causes
o There’s an open ticket on Portal with the device attached. You can validate this by searching the
IMEI in Portal.
o A pending ticket could have been created via 1-800-SAMSUNG if they were contacted prior to the
device arriving.
o A pending ticket may exist under another Samsung Authorized Service Center or Partner.

Solution
You can first contact Help Desk if you cannot find the open ticket in Portal.

If it can not be resolved by Help Desk, you can submit a ZenDesk Ticket Request and ask FSS to cancel any
pending tickets on their end.

If FSS cannot help, submit a JIRA Ticket.

68
[GCIC] Ticket is locked, the other user is using this ticket.

Description
The error occurs when the GSPN Ticket is being used on the GSPN side by another user.

Causes
o The GSPN ticket is currently being edited at the time of the error.
o The GSPN Ticket could be in an opened internet browser tab. Most of the time, it’s someone on the
Samsung side.

Solution
Wait and try again. This will likely resolve itself within the hour.

Submit a JIRA Ticket if the issue continues.

69
ASC Job No already exists.

Description
This error occurs when GSPN detects that the WO number (ASC Job No) has a GSPN Ticket already
attached.

Causes
o This is usually caused by a miscommunication/disconnect between the Portal WO and GSPN Ticket
while attempting to create the GSPN Ticket; this is at no fault of the store.
o There may have been a slight disruption in the internet connection while creating the ticket.

Solution
Submit a JIRA Ticket to have this resolved.

70
Cannot be accepted - status ST025

Description
This error occurs when the GSPN Ticket attached to the Portal Work Order has been canceled.

Causes
o GSPN Tickets can be canceled by the Samsung Field Support Team due to inactivity. Tickets that go
unresolved for more than 72 hours without an attempt at resolution end up in LTP (Long Pending
Ticket) status. This typically only affects In-Warranty repairs.

Solution
If the ticket has been canceled on an In-Warranty repair, you will need to recreate a new WO to properly get
reimbursed for the repair. Canceled tickets cannot be reopened via the old WO. Exceptions are not
guaranteed for the new WO depending on the circumstances.

If the WO needs to be closed due to no repair being completed, you can submit a Work Order Issue Form.

71
DelayReason is required for the status - ST030

Description
This error occurs when the GSPN ticket is in “Pending” status with no “Reason” selected.

Causes

o This could happen if the Portal WO is moved to “Awaiting Device/Awaiting Customer” status.

Solution
Try to move the WO to “Repair in Progress” status. This will usually resolve the issue.

Submit a JIRA Ticket if the above does not work.

72
Invoice is Invalid. Check the format of Invoice number.

Description
The error occurs when a part attached to the Work Order has an invalid OEM Invoice number.

Causes

o Distro’s OEM invoice for the Part does not match the invoice number on GSPN. This is at no fault of
the store.

Solution
Reach out to Help Desk to resolve this issue.

73
PBA/OCTA parts data is not valid.

Description
This error occurs when an OCTA or PBA QR code does not match its respective part. Items that require QR
scans are: OCTA Kits, Batteries, Camera Modules, and Main PBAs.

Causes
o Scanning the wrong QR code. It can be confusing since there are multiple QR codes on some parts.
o Running IQC after replacing the parts. Do NOT ever do this under any circumstance.

Solution
Execute GD Scan the proper QR codes. If you are absolutely certain you scanned the correct QR codes,
take pictures of both QR codes on both old and new parts. You will need to submit these for a SAW (Service
Action Work) request for a Parts S/N exception. Please double and triple check the QR codes on the part
before reaching out to support as most of these are resolvable without support.

* If you are rescanning the parts, ensure Portal is updating the codes correctly. If you have issues with Portal
updating the scans, please remove the part from the WO and add it back with the proper scans. *

If the above does not resolve the issue, you can use the SAW Tools module under “Work Order Actions”
within Portal. A guide on how to use this tool can be found here: SAW Tool Guide

Once the SAW is attached, you then will need to submit a ZenDesk Ticket Request. For Issue Type select
“Process Request” > “SAW” > “Parts and S/N” along with the appropriate WO information. Once approved,
you can proceed the WO.

74
Service request cannot be created.

Description
This error occurs when attempting to create a GSPN Ticket for a device with a Carrier not Supported by
Samsung.

Causes
o The device carrier may be TracFone, Straight Talk, or another unsupported carrier.
o The device may be an International Model. Please check the model code.

Solution
The current resolution is to use International Samsung Work Flow. After the WO is created, submit a request
to have the Samsung International Company attached.

This should only be used for Out-of-Warranty repairs. In-Warranty will need to be directed to the device’s
carrier. Please note that you will only receive GRADED CREDIT for these devices.

75
The work order status cannot be changed from this function!

Description
This error usually appears for In-Warranty GSPN Tickets that have a Warranty Error (WER). WOs cannot
proceed until these are resolved.

Causes

o The GSPN ticket has a Warranty Error (WER). You can review This Guide for more information on
these.

Solution
Submit this JIRA Ticket for WER for help resolving these errors.

76
Warranty bill number is already created.

Description
This error occurs when a confirmation number for a closed (Goods Delivered) GSPN ticket already exists.

Causes

o This is usually caused by a miscommunication/disconnect between the Portal WO and GSPN Ticket;
this is at no fault of the store.

Solution
Reach out to Help Desk to resolve this issue.

77
You can’t change the status of the cancelled ticket.

This error is also a variation of “Cannot be accepted - status ST025”

Description
This error occurs when the GSPN Ticket attached to the Portal Work Order has been canceled.

Causes
o GSPN Tickets can be canceled by the Samsung Field Support Team due to inactivity. Tickets that go
unresolved for more than 72 hours without an attempt at resolution end up in LTP (Long Pending
Ticket) status. This typically only affects In-Warranty repairs.
o GSPN desync. Although it’s rare, it’s possible that GSPN did not properly communicate with the
active WO and needs to be synchronized.

Solution
If the ticket has been canceled on an In-Warranty repair, you will need to recreate a new WO to properly get
reimbursed for the repair. Canceled tickets cannot be reopened via the old WO. Exceptions are not
guaranteed for the new WO depending on the circumstances.

If the WO needs to be closed due to no repair being completed, you can submit a Work Order Issue Form.

Using Fenrir Quick Reference Guide

Binary In order to use Fenrir with a device, the most up to date binary for that device must be loaded
Management into Fenrir.

There are two (2) types of binary used in Fenrir:

 H (Home) – Attempts to save customer user data


¬ Cannot be used for IMEI Write/Check processes
¬ Cannot be used on Tizen devices
 F (Factory) – Erases all customer user data, and sets the device to factory defaults
¬ Required for use with IMEI Write/Check processes
¬ Main screen can be used to flash Tizen watches as well as for the Phone
Recovery software option

Fenrir A (All) is an option which combines both the Home and Factory binaries into a single
program; this option requires twice the storage and network traffic as the individual
components, and allows more room for human error because it is possible for the wrong binary
to be applied to the device accidentally, which may cause customer user data to be
permanently lost. Tizen watches will not work on the Fenrir A Home screen, but can still be
flashed using the Phone software recovery option.

It is important to make sure that the correct binary is used for the wanted outcome.

Use the instructions in the step table below to manage Fenrir binaries:

Note: Using out of date binaries with Fenrir may cause device repair systems (e.g. IMEI Cloud
Client) or the device software to malfunction, and may render the device inoperable;
DO NOT attempt to recover a rooted device with Fenrir.

Step Action
Launch Fenrir, and access Administrator
Home by pressing Alt + F10; enter
smart100 as the password, then click OK

Using Fenrir Quick Reference Guide

Place the device in Download Mode using the instructions shown, and confirm the items
listed:

 Make sure the device is charged to at least 30%


 Check the Confirm all information box
 Click Forward to attempt device recovery
 Leave the device connected until the process has completed, and Fenrir
has confirmed that the results have been updated to the FUS server

Using Fenrir: When completing a repair, the device needs to be connected to Fenrir to perform a Warranty
SVC Connection Validation, also known as SVC Connection. SVC Connection is required for every repair, whether
it is in warranty or out of warranty.

Fenrir needs to log every component used during a repair to FUS. If FUS does not see the
components used in the GSPN Service Order for the device, GSPN logic will assume parts were
never used. This will stop the GSPN Service Order from being marked Goods Delivered. If this
happens, no Warranty Claim will be generated, and the location will not be paid for the repair.

To perform Warranty Validation after a repair, connect the device to PC via USB cable and wait
for Fenrir to recognize the device. Once device has been recognized, select SVC Connection and
wait for SVC Connection to log the IMEI to the FUS server.

NEW MFA APP SETUP FOR GSPN LOGIN
Beginning on Tuesday October 22, 2024, GSPN is expected to switch their MFA App over to the SingleID
Authenticator App. This short guide is meant to be a very brief overview of how to switch the app once
the change goes live in GSPN. The steps in this guide assume you already have an MFA device setup for
both GSPN logins (Slvl for main account and M0x for MOTP account). This process should be completed
on both of your GSPN accounts!

***If you are using an iOS/Apple device, you must first setup a 6-digit passcode BEFORE attempting to
register it as an MFA device***

1. Download the SingleID Authenticator App from App Store (iOS)/Play Store (Android).

2. Log into GSPN as you normally would to begin setup using the on-screen instructions.
a. WARNING: DO NOT SUBMIT AN MFA DELETION REQUEST!!!
b. If the User Consent page prompts, check “Accept all” to continue
3. At the verification option page, select “SingleID Authenticator – PIN”
4. Click the “Get started” button on the Enroll SingleID Authenticator page
5. You should now be prompted to install the SingleID Authenticator app
a. For Android devices search the app on the Google Play store (or use the on screen QR)
b. For iOS devices search the app on the App Store (or use the on screen QR)
6. Open the app once it’s downloaded to your device and configure it as instructed below
a. In the App Permissions pop-up, click the “OK” button
i. Enabling Push notifications is ideal for authenticating
b. Press the “Start” button at the bottom to be sent to the Home page
7. Back on the PC prompt, click the “Next” button on the Install mobile app page
8. You should be at the Service registration page with 2 options to register (QR or Manual)
a. Scanning the QR will send you right to the next step (Step 9 see below)
b. To activate the Manual Code, use the app to enter the PIN code
9. In the pop-up that says, “Would you like to register the following service?” click “Registration”
a. It should say GSPN/secdx or something similar in the message box as well
10. You will then be asked to create a 6-digit PIN. Create a PIN and take note of it somewhere.
11. A pop up will appear saying “Please register your biometrics/Face ID”, be sure to click “Cancel”
a. This will bypass the biometric requirements
12. GSPN should take you to the Enrollment completed screen; at this point you should be able to
log into GSPN using the PIN method!

If you are having any issues with the MFA setup, DO NOT SUBMIT AN MFA DELETION REQUEST!!!
Instead, please submit a JIRA Ticket using this form to troubleshoot first:
