Frequently Asked Questions

Why won't the permit platform accept my email address when I register a new account?

You might already have a user account that uses that email address. You cannot have multiple user names associated with a single email address. Try using the “I’ve forgotten my password” link and using that email address to retrieve your password.

How do I know if I’m logged in?

When you are logged in, you will see the text “Logged in as:”. Your user name in the navigation line includes links to “Logout” and “Account Management”. You will also see text as “Hello, Your User Name” on the left side of the screen.

I forgot my password, what do I do?

Click the “I Forgot My Password” link. Type the email address that you used when you created your account and click “Continue.” Type the answer to the Security Question you answered when you created your account and click “Send New Password.”

You will receive an email from autosender@agency.com with a new password. If you do not get an email with your new password, check your spam folder for the message. When you next log in, type your user name and the new password. You will be asked to update your password. Change the password to something that you can remember and click “Submit.”

This proposed solution should be useful for situations where the agency does not have email addresses for their existing license holders. This will provide a way for the licensee to register for ACA and link their existing licenses to their account.

1 create a Record Type for the Registration

  • At a minimum, the Record Type only needs to have a single ASI field that stores the PIN code.
  • You may want to also allow the user to renew the license at the same time.
  • If this is the case, the record type will also need renewal fields and associated scripting.
  • If there is no renewal function, do not associate any fees or workflow to the record. Create a page flow for the record.
