Edit Password (four character alphanumeric field)
The Edit process password allows you to lock out other users from editing a
process unless the correct password is known. To set this password, highlight the
Edit password field, type in your password then press the Enter key. A message
will pop up asking for verification to change the password. Press “1” to confirm
and “0” to cancel the change. Each time you want to edit this process, you will be
asked to enter the correct password. Once a password has been entered, this
parameter will not be displayed until the password has been entered again.
The default for this parameter is '0000'.
NOTE: Please note that once the password has been changed, the process
cannot be modified unless the correct password is entered so you must
remember your passwords!

and/or running a process unless the correct password is known. To set this

Enter key. A message will pop up asking for verification to change the password.
Press “1” to confirm and “0” to cancel the change. Each time you want to view or
run this process, you will be asked to enter this password. Please note that the

password has been entered again.
