initial password

Hi,

for new users we use the keyword wizard.

The result is a password with lots of special characters. It's not possible for a user to type it in.

Is it possible to reduce the complexity?

Regards

Hi,

if you can read code then check FM RSEC_GENERATE_PASSWORD. It reads parameters from table PRGN_CUST. The parameters are: GEN_PSW_MAX_LETTERS, GEN_PSW_MAX_DIGITS, GEN_PSW_MAX_SPECIALS and GEN_PSW_MAX_LENGTH. The parameters have to be compliant with password settings. So if password needs to contain at least one special character then you can't set GEN_PSW_MAX_SPECIALS to 0. There are also two notes (662466 and 915488) mentioned in parameter descriptions.

Cheers
