Away From My Desk (AFMD) has been receiving a large volume of requests for new accounts, which is taking several days to set up. Users will be emailed with logon details when the accounts have been set up. We will share further communications to ascertain which users still need to use AFMD and the digital transformation team will ask which tokens have been assigned to users at a later date.
