Run the UBE R98OWUP (Optional)

UBE R98OWUP updates the current F98OWSEC table records, based upon the processing options that you select. This UBE can populate these new fields for current users, as their F98OWSEC table records do not contain values for these options:

• Password Change Frequency

• Allowed Sign-in Attempts

• Enable / Disable User

• Daily Password Change Limit

• Force Password Change

Set these procession options:

• Proof or Final

  Indicates whether to run in proof or final mode. Proof mode does not commit records.

• Password Change Frequency

  For a given user, this option determines the maximum number of days before the system requires a password change.

• Allowed Attempts

  The number of times that uses can unsuccessfully attempt to log on before their JD Edwards EnterpriseOne account is disabled.

• Enable/Disable User

  Indicates if the user's account is enabled or disabled. A disabled account is not allowed into JD Edwards EnterpriseOne.

• Daily Password Change Limit

  The number of times that users can change their password in one day. Because the last ten passwords of a user are stored in the BLOB, it is a security hole to allow users to change their password as many times as they want. If users want to keep their current password, they can change it 11 times in one day so that they are not back to the original.

• Force Immediate Password Change

  This option requires users to immediately change their password. You might not want to set this option for all users.

The performance of this UBE is directly dependant upon how many system users are associated with user records in the F98OWSEC table. It should finish quickly.

To verify that the UBE completed successfully, access the User Security application (P98OWSEC), and find a user or role whose record should have changed. Verify that the values are correct.
