This frame gives the Application User the ability to change their own password. The frame also includes an Optional PIN reset if the application user is tied to an Employee on the Application User Maintenance frame.
To change the password for the currently logged in Application User, enter the Current Password and then enter the New Password. You must re-enter the new password in the Confirm field to ensure accuracy.
If you want to reset an Employee Pin, enter your Employee ID and the new PIN. When finished, select the SAVE button at the top of the frame to update the Application user password and/or PIN.
System Flags
5060 - Minimum Password Length - Defines the minimum password length for Application Users.
5061 - This flag determines how the password is to be generated. L = lowercase, U = uppercase, 9 = any number and @ = special character. So if the user value = ULL, that is saying somewhere in the password (based on length defined in 5060), there must be at least one uppercase letter and 2 lowercase letters. Only the following special characters can be used # $ + = _ to allow consistency across databases, Crystal and M5.
5062 - Enforce Password Length and Mask? (Y/N) - If set to "Y" passwords entered into M5 must meet the minimum length set by mod flag 5060 and diversity of characters defined by mod flag 5061.
5070 - Number of Entries Maintained in Password Change History - This defines how many entries are maintained in the password change history table for the user. The user cannot reuse the same password if it is found in this history. Setting this to 0 disabled the password history function.
