Set Password Requirements

Set Password Requirements

Security:
Admin Access
New password requirements apply to existing users only the next time they need to change their passwords. To force users to change their passwords, you can temporarily adjust the
Password Valid for
 field.
Example: If you specify 5 days for the setting, users get 5 days time to change their passwords. Workday prompts users to change their password when they sign in. After the specified time is complete, you can then extend the setting.
Always research and use current password management practices.
