Defining the account policy

A general account policy is defined in the submenu Account Policy:

Here you can see the default definition of the account policy. By entering a new value in the value column
and activating or deactivating the checkboxes you can change the preset definition. Click the Save icon
afterwards.

When the function "Password History Enabled" is activated the number defined in the field "Password
History length" defines how many previous passwords are remembered by the program, so that it is not
allowed to reuse them.

The "Max. Allowed User Inactivity Time [min]" defines the time interval after which the currently logged in
user is logged out when he has not operated the software. The software is now locked for operation and
the logon window appears again. The person that was last logged in has to enter his User name and
password and click the arrow key to unlock the software. To disable this function, enter the value 0.

NOTE

When the checkbox "Password Complexity Rule Enabled" is activated, consider the password complexity
rule described in the field below the table.
