# PIN code

Your PIN code is used together with your username to log in to Client and Assistant. It should be 4–6 digits, numbers only, and personal to you.

### Your first PIN

When your account is created, an administrator sets a temporary PIN for you. This lets you log in for the first time.

{% hint style="warning" %}

#### Change your PIN after first login

The temporary PIN is known by the person who created your account. Choose your own personal PIN to keep your account secure.
{% endhint %}

### How do I change my PIN?

You can change your PIN from Client:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Open user menu

Select your name in the top bar.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Enter current PIN

In the **Change PIN** dialog, enter your current PIN.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Set new PIN

Enter your new PIN in **New PIN**, then repeat it in **Repeat new PIN**. Select **Confirm**.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="success" %}

#### Use biometrics instead

In the Assistant app, you can activate fingerprint or Face ID as an alternative to entering your PIN. Tap your profile icon to find this option.
{% endhint %}

### Forgot your PIN?

Contact your store manager or administrator. They can reset your PIN in Admin under **Users**.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Only users with the USER permission can reset PINs for other users.
{% endhint %}

### Security tips

**✅ Do**

* **Choose a memorable PIN** so you don't need to write it down
* **Change your PIN** if you think someone else knows it
* **Use different PINs** for Flow Retail and other systems

**❌ Don't**

* **Don't use obvious PINs** like 1234, 0000, or your birth year
* **Don't share your PIN** — each person should have their own account
* **Don't write it down** where others can find it

### Admin login

Admin uses a separate login with email and password — not your username and PIN.

To reset your Admin password, use the "Forgot password" link at [admin.flowretail.com](https://admin.flowretail.com).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.flowretail.com/docs/getting-started/users-and-roles/pin-code.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
