Use Generated Password
When a new user is created or a password is reset, the system automatically allocates a password that is generated according to the definitions set in the parameters “Minimum Number of Characters”, “Requires Numeric Character” and “Requires Special Character”.  The generated password in emailed to the user. If the user does not have a valid email address this operation cannot be finalized.  Upon the next user login the system will force the user to modify the new password if the value of the parameter “Requires to Change Password after Login on Generated Passwords” is set to true.

When a new user is created or a password is reset, the Administrator will be required to enter a new password for the user. This password will be validated according to the definitions set in the parameters “Minimum Number of Characters”, “Requires Numeric Character” and “Requires Special Character”.  The Administrator will have the possibility to email the new password to the user by selecting the appropriate check box in the user interface. If the user does not have a valid email address the new password will be allocated to the user but the email will not be sent.  The user will be forced to change the now allocated password upon the next login.
