Step 2: Establish End User Authorization Contacts (EUACs)

We’ve Mapped Out the Entire Process

An End User Authorized Contact (EUAC) is responsible for managing FedLine® and Reporting Central and/or Structure Central electronic access. Your organization will either need to establish at least two individuals as new EUACs for Reporting Central and/or Structure Central or determine which existing EUAC(s) will be utilized. EUACs have the authority to designate individuals (Subscribers) who will submit reports via the FedLine Web Solution, and who are critical to the application setup process.

A holding company organization need only establish the EUAC(s) under one of the organizations in its structure. In order to avoid receiving multiple tokens, it is not necessary to establish EUACs and Subscribers for every legal entity within your structure; the Affiliate EUAC Setup Option can be used in this situation.

NOTE: You may want to consider submitting the forms in Step 1 and Step 2 together to an authorized individual so that the forms can be signed and submitted at the same time.

NOTE: Regarding Step 2 and Step 3, if you plan to set up EUACs or Subscribers who are located outside of the United States or its territories, please contact the Support Center for more information on this process.
