Updating Passwords
When Update Password is Yes in the System Access frame, subsequent actions depend on the setting of Password Creation Method in Security Control:
• Display. The system-generated password displays at the bottom of the screen.
• Email. The system generates a password and e-mails it to the user.
• No. Automatic password generation is disabled. A frame displays for you to manually enter a new password.
Note: Passwords specified in User Maintenance are single-use, temporary passwords generated by the system or entered by the system administrator. At log-in, the user is prompted to enter a new password.
User Maintenance, Set New Password Frame
Enter a new password. Since the system does not display passwords, type it again to confirm it.
Note: The new password must conform to structure and reuse rules defined in Security Control.
Passwords expire based on the value of Expiration Days in Security Control. If you want to let users change their own passwords at a time other than log-in, give them access to User Password Maintenance (36.3.3).
