Note: | This functionality does not apply if Essbase Server is in EPM System security mode or to users who are externally authenticated in Essbase native security mode. |
You can force other users to change their passwords the next time they log in to Essbase Server. Forcing a password change enables you to assign a default password to all new users and then prompt users to change the default when they begin using Essbase Server.
You cannot force a password change for users who are currently logged on. If a currently logged on user is part of a multiple-user selection, the forced password change is only applied to the users who are not currently logged on.
You can force a password change as described in this topic, or you can use the User Properties dialog box (User Info tab).
To force one or more users to change passwords at next login:
From Enterprise View or a custom view, under the appropriate Essbase Server, expand the Security node.
Under the Security node, double-click the Users node.
In the Users window, select one or more users.
Right-click and select Force password change.
At the confirmation prompt, click OK.
