Operations Menu - Change Password

If you are using the Hansa Web Shop facility and have Customers who will be placing Orders over the web, you should use this function to give them passwords. Such Customers should also have the Allow Login box on the 'Terms' card of their Customer records checked. They will use their Customer Number as a Login ID.

To set a password for a Customer, highlight their name in the 'Customers: Browse' window and select 'Change Password' from the Operations menu. The following window is opened:

Enter the old password if there is one and then type in the new one twice to ensure that it is correct. Passwords are case-sensitive. Press the Shift-Enter key combination to close the window and save: use the close box if you do not want to save changes.

If you want to set rules for passwords (e.g. to impose a minimum number of characters, or to require at least one alpha or numeric character), use the Password Security setting in the System module.
