Once you have successfully logged in to Department Manager with the User ID and password initially assigned by the system administrator, you can change your password for your own convenience and security if you have appropriate user privileges.
Before You Begin
Ensure that you are able to log in to Department Manager. If this is your first login, use the credentials provided by your system administrator, or as described in the article, Logging In and Logging Out of Department Manager.
Changing Your Password
- From the Department Manager main menu located in the system tray, select the Administration Option. A submenu appears.
- From the Administration submenu, select Change DM Password. A Change Password screen appears.
- Type your existing password into the Old Password field.
- Type a new password into the New Password field. Note that the passwords will not display for security reasons.
- Retype your new password into the Verify Password field. If the two new password entries do not match, you will get an error message and need to retype them.
- Click OK to save your new password. The software will display a message indicating that your change has been saved. You will need to use your new password going forward.
