Getting Started · Chapter 2
Signing in
Every school user signs in through one of two doors. Staff (Admin, Principal, Accountant, Teacher) use the staff login with their email and password; on a new browser they also enter a 6-digit code sent to their email. Students and parents use the Student Portal with the admission number and date of birth. After signing in, each person sees only the menus of their own role.

Questions
I did not get the 6-digit code.
Wait a minute and check the spam folder. Then click Resend code. A code can be requested about once a minute and only a few times in 15 minutes. Check with the Admin that your email in My Profile is correct.
Can I sign in on my phone?
Yes. The same login works in a phone browser. You can also click Install app in the top bar to add CoreAxis to the home screen.
Why does a driver or peon account not sign in?
Roles such as driver, peon, guard, nurse and housekeeping are staff records only. They have no ERP access and the login screen says so.
I see 'Your session expired for security'.
You were inactive for a long time and were signed out. Sign in again; on a trusted browser no code is needed.
