Reset an Employee's Password

Administrators can change an employee's password, if needed. For example, if a user enters the wrong password to log in enough times they are locked out until they wait the allotted time.

The user can click Forgot Password? to set a new password themselves, or the administrator can reset their password. See Reset Your Password for more information.

TIP: You can filter the list of records displayed. See Filter Records for more information.
