Q: Why am I seeing a blank or white screen when I log in? |
A blank or white screen on login is almost always a browser cache issue. Follow these steps to resolve it:
- Clear your browser cache and cookies. In Chrome: go to Settings → Privacy and Security → Clear browsing data. Select "Cached images and files" and "Cookies," then click Clear data.
- Try a hard refresh. Press Ctrl + Shift + R (Windows) or Cmd + Shift + R (Mac).
- Try a different browser. If you are using Edge, try Chrome, or vice versa. Aclarian works best in the latest version of Google Chrome.
- Disable browser extensions. Ad blockers or VPNs can interfere with the login process. Try opening the portal in an Incognito/Private window.
|
📧 If the issue persists for multiple users at your organization simultaneously, please contact Aclarian Client Support. |

Q: I can reach the login page but get stuck after clicking Login — what do I do? |
If the page loads but login never completes, try the following:
- Clear your browser cache (see article above).
- Make sure you are not on a VPN or proxy that may be blocking the Aclarian portal.
- Confirm your password has not recently been reset — if it has, use the Forgot Password link to set a new one.
- Try an Incognito/Private window to rule out browser extension conflicts.
|
📧 If none of these steps resolve the issue, contact Client Support and let us know how many users are affected and which browser(s) you are using. |

Q: A form or feature I need isn't visible — how do I get access? |
Some forms and features in Aclarian must be enabled by your organization's administrator before they appear in your portal.
Steps to request access:
-
- Contact your Aclarian System Administrator at your organization first — they can enable many forms and access levels directly in User Management.
- If the form needs to be enabled at the system level, your administrator can submit a request to Aclarian Client Support.
Common forms that require admin activation:
-
- Access Change Form
- Budget Amendment / Budget Transfer forms
- Quick Approval forms

Q: How do I manage or turn off email notifications in Aclarian? |
Aclarian sends email notifications for workflow approvals and other events. If you receive more than you need, you can adjust your preferences.
To manage notification settings:
-
- Log in to the Aclarian portal.
- Navigate to your User Profile / Settings (usually in the top-right corner).
- Find the Notification Preferences section.
- Toggle off the notifications you do not wish to receive.
|
💡 Tip: If you are in Aclarian throughout the day and prefer to check for approvals manually, turning off approval notifications is a common choice for finance teams. |
