To reset the password for a user account
Resetting the password for a user sends that user an email that allows them to reset their password with no other intervention from an administrator.
This method cannot be used to reset the password for a user who is locked out of their account, for example, attempting a misspelled password too many times unless you also disable the Account is locked out check box. Users who are not locked out can reset their password using the Resetting Your Password procedure.
- In Service Center, click Configuration > Users & Roles > User Management.
- Click the name of the user account you want to reset the password for.
- If the account is locked, clear the Account is locked out check box.
- Click Reset Password.
- Click OK.
- Click OK.

You can prevent the password from expiring for any user account, which is particularly useful for accounts that interact with a professional services automation (PSA). If the password expires for a PSA user account, the integration ceases to function until the password is updated.
- In Service Center, click Configuration > Users & Roles > User Management.
- Click the name of the user account you want to prevent the password from expiring for.
- Select the Password does not expire check box.
- Click Save.

- Click the name of the user account you want to disable.
- Select the Account is Disabled check box.

To unlock a user account
A user whose account has been locked out cannot log into the Service Center web console until the account has been unlocked by an Administrator. An account is locked out to prevent unauthorized access attempts but does not affect any other aspect of the user account. The user continues to receive notifications in the usual manner.
- In Service Center, click Configuration > Users & Roles > User Management.
- Click Users.
- Click the name of the user account that is locked.
- Clear the Account is Locked Out check box.
- Click Save.
