To create a password for the user, enter a password that contains alphanumeric
or special characters in the Password field. In the Confirm Password field, enter
the password again.

password and Phone PIN at the same time for the user, click

send an email to the user if a valid email address displays in the Email Address
field. If you want the user to change the password on next login, check the check
box and click
OK
. (Before you reset the credentials, you are asked to save any
changes that you made to the page.)
