Generate Random Password
This convenient Web-only function enables your system administrator to assign temporary passwords to single or multiple users. Costpoint generates temporary passwords based on the password complexity policy as defined in the Change Password function.
Costpoint electronically notifies users via email, which is sent to individual users only. Your system administrator does not know the password.
The randomly generated password assigned to each user is temporary. The user must change it after logging in.

If edits or changes to the user's information are not required, use the Generate Random Password procedure; if, however, edits or changes are the main purpose of the session, you can generate a random password at the same time by selecting Generate Random Password, which automatically triggers password generation after you save the user information. This method is designed especially for creating new users.
