8 Chapter 1: Getting Started The NJ SVRS provides an end-to-end Voter Registration System (VRS). Users navigate the NJ SVRS interface from a single point of control called the Dashboard, which consists of primary system modules and daily system reminders. This guide is structured in chapters by system module. The interface, use provides a workflow that is logical, intuitive, and work-centric. The logical structure of the workflow in each module is designed to allow users to complete tasks with a minimal number of clicks, each providing visual assurance of progress toward the goal. 1.1 Audience This document is intended for all users of the NJ SVRS. 1.2 Related Documentation The following documents are also available for quick reference: IT User Quick Start Guide State Admin User Quick Start Guide County Admin User Quick Start Guide Standard User Quick Start Guide 1.3 System Requirements NJ SVRS can be accessed from a Mac or PC with the following system requirements: Mac macos 10 or higher One of the following browsers: Google Chrome Mozilla Firefox PC Windows 7, 8.1, or 10 One of the following browsers: Microsoft Edge Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) 11 Google Chrome Mozilla Firefox Chapter 1: Getting Started Page 7 of 325

11 Pre-Populated Drop-Down Lists Where applicable, fields contain drop-down lists that are pre-populated with system data for that field. Automated Interoperability with External Data Sources NJ SVRS automates many repetitive tasks that are required of users. When interacting with external interfaces, such as the Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC), State Parole Board (SPB), Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC), and the Department of Corrections (DOC). NJ SVRS also processes deceased voter records from the Department of Health and Human Services (DHSS). Chapter 1: Getting Started Page 10 of 325

12 Context-Sensitive Menus and Embedded Functionality Workflow task navigation is streamlined and context-sensitive menus are populated with relevant actions based on the current page and record selected. For example, when a voter record is selected, users can view the information and perform actions directly in the voter record without to navigating back to a specific area of the interface.

13 1.6 Accessing the Voter Registration System The following sections describe the steps required for authorized users to log in and out of the NJ SVRS. The login process uses multi-factor authentication (MFA), which requires a username, password, and a verification code Multi-Factor (MFA) Card Authentication From the system login page, users will be asked to enter their verification code as part of the MFA login process. Each NJ SVRS user is assigned an individual MFA card, which displays a unique verification code each time the user logs in. To access the verification code, press the button on the front of the card. The verification code displays in the window on the front of the card, and is used during the MFA login process Logging In Follow these steps to log into the NJ SVRS: 1.
