Password Management

Password Utilities for Users

Password Policy requirements will apply when passwords are added or changed.

Login Screen

The main log in page for both Advantage and Webvantage provides users with two utilities to manage their own passwords.

• Change Password – Allows the employees who know their old password to change their login password.  Password changes require the entry of the Old Password, New Password and a second entry of the new password for confirmation.
• Forgot Password –Allows the employee to reset their login password when forgotten or lost. A message prompting the user to check their email for instructions is generated. Once the email is opened, a five-letter code can be copied and pasted into the Change Password pop-up. Enter the new password twice and click Save.
