Changing Password and Profile Information

Change your password regularly to maintain high security, so that unauthorized persons do not gain access to the Administration Console using administrator’s credentials.

Use the My Profile page to change your current password and your preferences that will be reflected by default for all administrator-related tasks that you perform in future.

To change your current password and/or to set your organization preference:

  1. Ensure that you are logged in as the MA.
  2. Click the MASTERADMIN link in the Console header.

    The My Profile page appears.

  3. In the Change Password section, specify:
    1. The Current Password.
    2. The New Password.
    3. The new password again in the Confirm Password field.
  4. In the Administrator Preferences section, specify:
    1. Whether you would like to Enable Preferred Organization.

      This organization is selected by default in the "Organization" field for all administrator-related tasks that you perform from now on. For example, when you search the administrators and users, by default they are searched in the preferred organization.

    2. The Preferred Organization that is selected by default in the "Organization" field from now on.
    3. The preferred Date Time Format.

      This Date Time format is shown from now on in the Last Login timestamp and all other timestamps in the Console. In addition, the reports data (such as Transaction Date) uses this Date Time format.

    4. The preferred Locale for your login of Administration Console.

      See "Configuring Custom Locales" for more information about how to configure locales. AuthMinder supports English (United States) out-of-the-box.

    5. The preferred Time Zone.

      This Time Zone is shown from now on in the Last Login timestamp and all other timestamps in the Console. In addition, the reports data (such as Transaction Date) and other dates and timestamps uses this Time Zone.

      The default Time Zone is GMT.

  5. Click Save.
