Managing the Password
Overview
The password currently expires every 90 days.
if the new password expiry would fall during a holiday period, such as in between Christmas and New Years, a work-around is to change the password again a few days later.
As discussed with IT:
the password cannot be optional because of the complexity of the application. It does something with a password key vault.
If the client or development teams require the password to never expire a request has to be submitted to IM/IT security.

The password can only be changed once per 24 hour period. To find out when the password can be changed open a command prompt and run net user AAIR /domain. Password changeable identifies the next time the password can be changed again. |
