All Divisions
This option only applies if Operators by Division has
been activated in Company Information.
It can be used to change the access password for a specific user in
Operators for every division to which he
has access based on the operator assigned System ID
code.
Note: When the external 'Authentication' feature is
enabled in the Texada Support Parameters
this "Password" control processing is disabled and the
operator is redirected the to the User Management Menu on
Texada Web.
The prompts are:
-
- OPERATOR CODE
- The operator code of the person logging into this terminal will
display, and cannot be changed.
SYSTEM ID
- The system assigned ID will display, and cannot be changed.
The change to the password is based on the System ID across
divisions rather than the operator name, as this ID is more unique
than the name could be.
EMAIL ADDRESS
- The email address assigned to this operator at this location is
displayed, and can be updated if required.
OLD PASSWORD
- For verification, correctly type in the old password in order
to replace it with a new one.
This helps to ensure that only the person assigned that Operator
code can change their password.
For security purposes, when the password is entered it will NOT
display on the screen, but will display as asterisks
instead.
NEW PASSWORD
- Type in the new Password.
This will not actually display for security reasons.
A password cannot match the operator sign in code or the sign in
division, and must contain both alpha and numeric characters.
Further password requirements can be set in the Password Controls security utility.
Random Password Generator:
Click the Create icon (green plus symbol) beside the New
Password field to cause the system to provide a random password
that will be much harder for a hacker to discover.
The suggested password must then be manually typed in and confirmed
to activated it for the operator.
RE-ENTER NEW PASSWORD
- Type in the new Password again.
This verifies that the new password typed in above is correct.
Finished?
- Click ACCEPT to accept the new password and proceed or click
CANCEL to abort the password change.
