How to Reset a Password

Overview

  • Individual users may also reset their own passwords.

  • Click on the Administration tab
  • Click on the Users Sub-tab
  • Select the user for the password change and click on the name of the user.
  • Go to the 'User Actions' section and select 'Reset' next to the label Password.
  • A page will open that provides fields to type and verify the new password. The security parameters for acceptable passwords will be visible on this page.

  • Click on the Users Sub-tab
  • Select the user for the password change and click on the name of the user.
