You can follow these instructions to update a Customer's password.

 

We advise that you have your Customers change their passwords using the Forgot Password? feature, or that you send them a Reset Password email (see below). This ensures that only the account holder is privy to their password.

To maintain a high level of security in the account, the new password must contain...

• At least 8 characters
• At least 3 of the following:
  • Lowercase letters (a-z)
  • Upper case letters (A-Z)
  • Numbers (0-9)
  • Special characters (e.g. !@3$%^&*)

Passwords must NOT contain empty spaces.

You can change a Customer's password by following these steps:

1. From the Customer Profile, select the Change Password button.
2. From the Change Password modal, enter a New Password, considering the above-listed requirements.
3. Select Change Password when finished.

You can follow these instructions to reset a Customer's password.

 

To have a Customer reset their passwords...

1. Click on the Reset Password (Email) button.
2. From the Reset Password modal, confirm that you want to send a reset email to the email address displayed.
3. Click Send Reset Email to send the email.

The Customer can then follow the link in the Reset email to change their password.

 

In the following article within this series, we look at adding new bookings for the Customer from the Customer Profile.
