Portal change password ?

hi,
we went into production for 1200 employees with our portal. as users forget their passwords
in portal i want to let them give the possibility of changing it themselves -> is it possible that
the new passwort is generated and send via email ? what is the necessary customizing ? we use UME and use the users from the backend-HR-system.
best reg, Martin

Hi Gerardo,
You can use the support link on the login screen of the Portal. Through this link users can have a new (random) password sent through e-mail. You can make settings for this functionality in the Visual Administrator in the UME Provider service. You have to set the logon_help property to true and make further settings for e-mail notification. Here are some links that can help you on your way:

  • R/3 Users of Type system Change Passwords

    Hi,
    I have the following scenario, I have users from R/3 that can access portals, but i don't want them to access from dialog in R/3. I created them of type user "B" as "system users".
    How can i change the passwords of them in portals, like a service for "changing passwords" or "forgot passwords"?
    Should i created them as other type? But the others types can access dialog?
    regards,

    Hi GLM,
        I don't want to disable the passwords, i just want them to be able to change their passwords from the portal.
        Let me explain my scenario again, I have many students that have a R/3 user account, but they only use sap from a WD4A applications so thay can update personal data and so on. The thing is thay they are users in R/3 of type system, because i don't want them to be able to enter form SAPGUI, but they can't change their passwords.
      Student -> enter portals -> change password.
      Student -> enter SAPGUI -> can't access. 
      We have the single sign on.
      thanks for the help,

  • In Portal Anonymous mode - Change password option not coming- login fails

    Hi Experts,
         We are having some application which requires login in anonymous mode. When we click the application and give the user id password, it loggs in properly, there is no problem in that.
        But if the password is reset by administrator, then when entering the reset password given by admin it should ask to change the password. This is happening in normal scenario(/irj/portal), but when try the same in anonymous mode(irj/portal/anonymous) where the prompt is from the login required application, then it says login failed instead of giving the change password and confirm password screen.
    Appreciate your help in solving this issue. I hope many would have faced similar situation.
    Thanks
    Yusuf

    Hi Yusuf.
    Do you use a standard or custom login module for your application?
    More likely the used login module does not have a logic that handles such scenario as a change of user's password.
    In this case you need to implement a custom module with a required functionality.

  • Change Password Screen error in - External Facing Portal

    HI,
    We have developed an external facing portal for anonymous users and the EFP has protected content which will redirect the users to enter logon information to access it.
    The process of authentication also working well in EFP but we are getting some strange error when the password was "reset' by administrator.
    Here is the process...
    1. Password 'reset" by administrator
    2. user clicks on "protected content"
    3. Logon screen displayed
    4. After entering details, should be redirected to change their password but instead of that we are getting "Java iView Runtime error"
    I need expert views on this to solve.
    This is happening only when accessing EFP, user will be redirecting successfully to change password screen when accessing through "/irj/portal"
    Any solution.
    Thanks
    MMK

    Here is the scenario ..
    1. User's password was reset by administrator.
    **That's fine.
    2. User gets redirected to change their password when logging (first time after reset) ... when accessing via .. http://<server>:<port>/irj/portal
    **That's ok too, this is just a redirection.  At this point I would be doing https for external customers though.
    3. Occured "Java Ivew run time error" when the user trying to login from External Facing Portal ... via .. http://<server>:<port>/irj/portal/anonymous?guest_user=partners
    **At this point you will have to look at your .trc log files. (logviewer)   If this is just an access denied issue then look at permissions in the roles or groups.  If you are assigning a new password, is that effecting a group or system membership?  The .trc files will give a heads up.

  • How to enable change password feature in SAP Netweaver Portal 7?

    Hi experts,
    I would like to provide a change password link just beside the logout link after user had successfully logged in to Sap Netweaver portal. When user clicks that link, a change password screen sill appear to allow user to change his/her password.
    Question:
    1) How do i create a link in portal header just beside the logout link?
    2) Is there any default change password page for Sap Netweaver Portal that I can use for this purpose?
    Thanks,
    Kenneth

    Hi,
    To get the change password link beside logout, get the masthead PAR file from portal, import into your NWDS, make the changes in the JSP and upload PAR file back to portal. Search with keyword "Masthead customization" in SDN. You will get many documents to achieve.
    SAP has password change functionality available. Chekc the link below for details.

  • How to Enforce User Change Password First Time User in Release 2?

    Hi...
    We discovered in Oracle Directory Manager(in unix is oidadmin), there actualy
    column to expiry date.(the default is 60).
    We follow this notes in metalink..
    Note:176470.1 Subject: How To Pre-Expire Portal Passwords
    Even though the note is for Portal30(release1), we just wangt to try it in our Release 2...
    Extract from the note
    "3. Set the value of the column LAST_PASSWD_CHANGE_TIME in the table WWSEC_PERSON$ in SSO schema to a value older than the password expiration period (default is 90 days) before the current time (e.g. sysdate - 100) for the appropriate user(s)
    4. For example, if you have created a user called TEST
    you would issue a command such as:
    update wwsec_person$
    set LAST_PASSWD_CHANGE_TIME =sysdate-70
    where USER_NAME='TEST';
    commit; "
    But, when we try to login again in the portal, we can still login...
    So, is the function still exist in Release 2?..
    If not, why Oracle Portal throw that function away?
    Why there still columns in WWSEC_PERSON$ that maybe linked to the password problem?
    can anybody help/explain?
    Thanks....

  • Why do we get First operand...error message when trying to change password

    Hi
    I'm new at posting here, so sorry if I'm doing this wrong. I did search first to see if there was info on this already, but I didn't find anything. (If there is already something out there, please point me to it.)
    We are using PeopleSoft Financials 8.8 SP1.
    We have basic workflow enabled in expenses which generates an email to an approver with a link into PS Expenses (right to their worklist area) when they have an expense report to review. When the user clicks the link they are directed to the PS sign on page. Normally they can sign on without any problems. However, if their password has expried they will be redirected to a page which says "Your password has expired. Click here to change your password." When they click the link they recieve a blank page with an error message that starts out as "First operand of. is NULL, ".
    I cannot replicate it in our test environments.
    I have confirmed that we have the PSWDEXPR permission list in our environment.
    I have also confirmed that our template for Change Expired Password is correct (PeopleTools > Portal, Structure & Content > Folder, "Tools - Hidden" > Change Expired Password > Template is PRTL_TEMPLATE_PASSWORD_EXP)
    I have also tried changing our brower cache to 0. (PeopleTools >Personalization >Personalization Options > Option Category Level = PeopleTools, Format tab, User Option of METAXP. I changed METAXP to 0 instead of 900 which was set by default).
    The odd thing is that if the user waits one day, they can use the link in the expense workflow email and change their password no problem.
    Also, when our users do experience this problem, if they log into PeopleSoft without using the link from the expense workflow email the change password function works fine.
    The link seems to be okay since it works fine at all times unless the user is prompted to change their password.
    Any suggestions?

  • Portal Users Passwords expiring

    In 9.02 it seems my portal users passwords seem to expire for no reason. When it happens, I have to go in and manually re-set their passwords. Is this a bug or is there some place to control this.

    Set the number of seconds before password expiration that the directory server
    sends the user a warning. By default the "Password Expiration Warning"
    parameter is set to 0, which disables the expiration warning.
    Also if the users need to be able to login after the password expiration set
    the "Number of Grace Logins after Password Expiration" parameter to a
    number greater than 0.
    Change these parameters in the following manner:
    1. Start the Oracle Directory Manager from the home of the iAS Infrastructure
    2. Login as the OID administrator, i.e. orcladmin
    3. Click on the + on the left of Password Policy Management
    4. Click on your password policy to change the settings on the right pane
    5. Set the Password Expiration Warning in seconds i.e. 259200 for 3 days.
    6. Set the Number of Grace Logins after Password Expiration to a greater than 0
    value i.e. 1. This will add a last opportunity for the user after his/her
    password expired.

  • Users changing passwords within LDAP authentication

    Hello all,
    I've noticed that if a user uses the 'Membership' authentication to access the portal, they are allowed to change their passwords within the 'user channel' edit section.
    If a user logs in throught the LDAP authentication, this password utility disapears.
    1 - Is there a way to use this password utility when using LADP authentication? Is it just a setting somewhere??
    2 - What are you using to change password if you are using LDAp authentication? i.e. did you create your own password tool??
    Thanks in advance,
    Jason

    Here's how I did it on 6.0:
    I created a bookmark with these properties:
    Bookmark Name: Change Personal Settings
    URL: /amconsole
    When the user clicks on the bookmark, they have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the window to find the change password option. After changing the password, the user should close the amconsole window WITHOUT clicking on the logout button. Just kill the window.
    If they click "logout" it will log them out of the Portal Server while leaving the desktop window open. It will look like they are still logged in but they are not. They will have to re-login.

  • ISE and AD.. Users Cant login with domain credentials after changing password

    Hello guys,
    I have ISE 1.2 running in a live environment. I have a problem that users cant login after password has expired and changed. i have enabled password change under AD settings and have also checked the allow password change in the allowed protocols settings for PEAP with retries set to 3. 
    thanks for any help i can get in resolving this issue.

    You have the option to allow guests to change password in the portal settings?

  • ISE Guest - Change Password Option

    Hi All
    Can anyone confirm that the change password option on the Guest Self Registration Portal actually works?
    I have enabled the options with the ISE Guest Portal to allow the Guest to create his own account and also to change his password.
    Although the self creation of the account works fine it doesn't look like changing the password works. When you enter the new password and click submit nothing seems to happen.
    ISE version is 1.2.1.198
    Regards
    Roger

    Hi Roger,
    Are you making use of customized self registration portal. In such cases make sure , the session ID of a particular guest login is carried forward to the password change page as well.
    For the html changes to any pages (login, aup, self_registration, self_registration_result,
    device_registration & change_password)  that link back to other pages. The below points A and B should be added as part of customized pages.
    A)Reference script (<script src="js/customportals.js"></script>)
    B)Add the onsubmit="getDynamicAction(this);" logic for posts
    Thanks

  • Change password functionality

    Using Plumtree 5.0.2 (.NET) - Plumtree Database Users
    Would love to see the following functionality in future release. For now, need pointers -1. Prompt users to change password on NEXT LOGON.2. Prompt users to change password after 'x' days. (Password expires after 'x' days)Though I have a fair idea on how to go abt this task but would appreciate any useful suggestions/pointers.ThanksKuljit

    Continue ...
    Now open the plum50 UI source code .Compile and run the solution. Now it should open the portal login page. Implement the PEIs steps. Refer implementing Plumtree Event interface document. (This is available on plumtree website).Create Separate aspx page for change password. Open sample PEIproject and navigate to class called ExLoginActions.It has different events like before login, afterlogin etc. I used before login and after login methods to put my custom code
    publicvirtualRedirect OnAfterLogin(Object oUserSession, ApplicationData appData)
    IPTSession objSession =(IPTSession)_oUserSession;
    IPTUser objUser=objSession.GetUser();
    stringsUName = objUser.GetLoginName();
    if(sUName !=null&& sUName !="" && sUName !="Guest" && sUName.ToLower() !="administrator" )
    intidays =ADDLL.cLdap.PwdChangeRequired(sUserName);
    if(idays !=0 && idays <=14 && idays >0 )
    Redirect redirect = new Redirect();
    redirect.SetLinkToExternalURL("https://1.2.3.4/ChangePassword/ConfirmPwd.aspx?UserName=" + sUserName + "&&Idays=" +idays );
    returnredirect;
    returnnull;
    I have removed some of the confidential codes. In your aspx page after change password return to portal (use response .redirect).
    You can create your own class also __
    Hope this doc helps you out. You can work with plum support too.
    Thanks ,Raj..

  • User must change password at next logon?

    Hello,
    We have an XMII / LDAP connection to AD. (Both read and write). But when ever we set a user in our AD to change password at next logon, they get block from logging into Xmii.
    The funny part about this is if we do the following:
    1: User login into Xmii
    2: Administratator on AD controller, sets the flag  "User must change password on next logon"
    3: User selects Logout.
    Now the user gets promt of changing his/her password.
    Anyway to fix this?

    Well we have some clients that doesn't use the same login to MII and for their workstation.
    Basicly i want so whenever i set the flag "User must change password at nextlogon" in AD, I want MII to see that and make the user change his or her password in the portal.
