How to deny password changes

asked on March 13, 2017

I have a client with 1200 accounts. Can I enable the check box for "users cannot change password" without having to go into each user profile?

You could export the user list, manipulate the XML to change that setting, then re-import the user list using the "Only update existing objects (do not create new objects)" option. The help files have instructions on exporting and importing repo objects, such as users.

I strongly recommend backing up your database, saving an unmodified version of the exported user list XML, and testing out your procedure on a couple users first to prevent any data loss.

Within the XML file, you would need to replace is_passwordchangedisallowed="0" with is_passwordchangedisallowed="1"
