Changing a User's Password or Email Address

Changing a User's Password:

The currently assigned password cannot be seen or retrieved by an administrator or manager on the RFMS Online Services website. Only the user can retrieve their password by selecting the Forgot Password? option on the login screen on any of our applications. See also the article: Forgot Password.

The Change Password option for administrators and managers allows you to assign a completely new password to a user.

Changing a User's Email address:

If a user's email address has changed, then the username will need to be deleted and a new user account created. Any files stored in the cloud under their old username will need to be transferred to their new folder.
