Operations Menu - Change Password

Once you have recorded a user or employee in the Person register, they will be able to log in to and use your Books by HansaWorld database. For security reasons, therefore, it is recommended that all Persons have their own passwords and that these are changed from time to time.

You can assign Passwords to Persons as you add them to the Person register. If you do not do this, each Person will be asked to set a password the first time they log in. To set a password for a Person as you add them to the Person register (or to change a password at any other time, for example if a Person leaves the company), highlight their name in the 'Persons: Browse' window and select 'Change Password' from the Operations menu. The following window will be opened:

Type in the new password twice to ensure that it is correct. Click [Save] to close the window and save, or click [Cancel] if you do not want to save changes. The password is case-sensitive.

Each Person can also change their own password, even if they do not have access to the System module. After logging in, the Person should open the Master Control panel (or bring it to the front) and select 'Change Password' from the Operations menu. Then, they should follow the instructions above.
