Changing user password was created by jmurcia
Hello,
is there a possibility for a user to change his/her password by him/herself?
I find no options for that within the standard users account, only in the administrators account.

Thanks,
Jorge

Hi
it sounds like you are using the DB authentication option where you have to create user accounts manually. If that's the case then no there isn't currently a way for users to change their own passwords or indeed other account details. Organisational installations are usually set up to use one of the other authentication methods like Ldap or Saml etc where management of passwords etc is done outside of Xerte.

Hi Ron,
it is as you say (DB authentification). So for the time being we'll have to live with that...
Thanks a lot,
Jorge
