User Password Change and Expiration

Because of security constraints, if you are using Siebel Business Applications on z/OS, user passwords might be set up to periodically expire. User passwords can be changed as follows:

• When a password has expired. In Siebel Business Applications, expired user passwords can be changed from the login window without administrative intervention.
• When a password has not yet expired. If a user password has not yet expired, a user can change the password by amending the user preferences in the client application. For information on amending user preferences, see Siebel Fundamentals.

  NOTE:  A user's access to the functionality in the User Preferences screen depends on how the Siebel application is configured. For more information, contact your Siebel administrator.
