Firms Using Enforced SSO
If your firm has enabled Enforce Single Sign-On (SSO), all users must sign in using the Sign in with Microsoft option. Attempting to use the standard username/password login may allow you to enter your credentials and complete multi-factor authentication, but you will receive an error before sign-in is completed.
This is expected behaviour when SSO enforcement is enabled.
If you receive an error after using the standard sign-in method, simply return to the login page and select Sign in with Microsoft instead.
If you are unsure whether your firm has enabled SSO, please contact your firm's administrator or Appara Support.
