# How does an administrator enable a change of association method?

## Enable the requested switch so the User can choose again on the Device.

Each User chooses between PIN and optional one-to-one iris recognition at the first assessment, and may later ask to change. The Customer defines and communicates the route through which Users make that request.

When a request is received, a user with the Administrator or Agent role enables the switch for that User. The choice is then presented to the User again on the Device, and the User makes the new selection there. The Administrator or Agent does not choose the method for the User.

When a User switches from iris recognition to PIN, the Service automatically deletes that User’s Iris Identification Data from active systems. A switch in either direction does not reset the User’s baseline or delete measurement history.

Administrators and supervisors must not require iris recognition or present it as mandatory, expected, or preferred, and should not encourage either method.
