VALIDITY DETAILS

Password validity

• The Password validity field serves as an enable/disable button.

  • When this field is enabled, two additional fields become visible: Validity Day and Notify User Before.

  • These two fields allow users to specify the number of days the password remains valid before requiring a change and the number of days before expiration when a user should be notified.

  • However, if the Password validity field is disabled, these two additional fields will not appear.

  • This setup allows users to control password expiration settings based on their needs.

Validity Day: Specifies the number of days for which the password remains valid before needing to be changed.

Notify User Before: Indicates the number of days before password expiration when a user should be notified
