Changing another user's password

To change the password for another user, you need the 'Reset password' permission

  1. In the tree view on the left hand panel, open the Users folder and select the user whose password you wish to change. The user details are displayed to the right.

  2. Enter a temporary password into the Password box and then enter it again into the confirmation box. The passwords will appear as stars for security purposes. Passwords must conform with the current password policy which is set within the SM module. The default password settings are minimum length 6 characters, maximum length 15 characters.

  3. Click Apply to apply the new password.

When the user next logs into MACRO, they will be alerted that a temporary password has been created and they will be forced to create a new one. This is a security feature to prevent anyone other than the user knowing the password.
