Configure Password Policy Preferences

Administrators can set up password requirements for users. Once password requirements are set up, they only affect new users, or existing users who update their password.

  1. From the General tab or home page, click Preferences.
  2. Click the Password Policy tab.

  1. In the Minimum Length field, enter the minimum number of characters required for a password by using the arrows, or clicking in the field and manually typing a number. If you don't want to set a minimum length, leave the field blank or enter zero.
  2. In the Minimum Number of Upper Case field, enter the minimum number of uppercase letters required for a password by using the arrows, or clicking in the field and manually typing a number. If you don't want to set a minimum length, leave the field blank or enter zero.
  3. In the Minimum Number of Numeric field, enter the minimum number of numeric characters required for a password by using the arrows, or clicking in the field and manually typing a number. If you don't want to set a minimum length, leave the field blank or enter zero.
  4. In the Minimum Number of Special Characters field, enter the minimum number of special characters required for a password by using the arrows, or clicking in the field and manually typing a number. If you don't want to set a minimum length, leave the field blank or enter zero.

NOTE: Designer automatically saves the changes you make. A notification that says Data Saved appears in the top-right corner when you make changes to the page.
