Office Profile Security Tab

Use the Security tab in the Office Profile detail view to define or view password options.

Note: 
  • The system administrator and users with the appropriate role can access these features.
  • Infor CRM SLX passwords are case-sensitive and may have up to 30 characters.

To set password security options:

  1. On the Navigation Bar, click Administration and the click Office Profiles to open the Office Profiles List view. If necessary, use the Lookup to locate an office profile, and then click the company's name to open the Office Profile detail view.
  2. Click the Security tab.
  3. To use Windows Authentication, ensure Use Windows Authentication (Infor CRM Password not required to log on) is selected. Otherwise, clear this field.
  4. Specify a password in the Default Password field to change the default password for new users. The Infor CRM SLX default user password is SLXMa$t3r. The default password cannot be blank.
  5. Specify a number in the Minimum Password Length field to force the user's password to contain a minimum number of characters.
    Note: If blank passwords are permitted, ensure the minimum length of password is 0.
  6. Specify a number in the Days Until Password Expires field to set a password expiration date. This option does not apply if you select the Force user to change default password check box. Some Infor CRM SLX Web components require Infor CRM SLX user names to function. If the passwords expire for these user names, the Web components will not work.
    Note: This option only applies to signing in to the Web Client. The Administrator has a separate option for the Windows Client.
  7. Select Password must contain numbers and letters to require that the user password contains at least one number and at least one letter. This field is only available if Do not allow blank passwords is selected.
  8. Select Force user to change default password to require that users change the default password when they log on.
  9. Select Do not allow blank passwords to require all users to have a password. When this option is selected, the No Password button is not available in the Change Password field in the client programs and Administrator.
    Note: If blank passwords are permitted, ensure the minimum length of password is 0.
  10. Select Password cannot contain username to prohibit a user from using their Infor CRM SLX username as part of a password.
  11. Set the Login Attempt Threshold. This limits the number of times a user can attempt and fail to log in to the Infor CRM SLX Web Client before the user is locked out. This option is not applicable to the Sales Client.
    1. Select the number of failed attempts to allow.
    2. Specify the number of minutes that must pass before the lock is reset automatically. Setting the Login Attempt Threshold to 0 indicates that the lock is not reset automatically.
      Note: To reset locked out users before the lock out time passes, see Resetting Locked Out Users.
