Change Password Single Dialogs Workspace

Use this workspace to change user passwords.

Passwords are normally required to access Maconomy. Maconomy verifies that users enter the correct combination of user name and password.

Passwords are mandatory if you selected the Password Required option in the System Information workspace. If you selected this option, Maconomy automatically assigns a password to each new user that you add in the Users workspace. A user should change this first password immediately.

Use the Access Information workspace to set up the rules that govern the format of user passwords (for example, the number of characters and the minimum number of digits).

It is recommended that after you create a user, he or she should immediately change the password that Maconomy assigned to him or her. In the Access Information workspace, you can specify the rules for the contents of access codes, as well as rules about how often users must change their passwords.

If a password is required, Maconomy checks that the password complies with the rules set up in the Access Information workspace.

Each time that you delete or change a password, the action is recorded in Maconomy's security log. The passwords are not recorded.
