Reset User Passwords

The Community Data Solutions CRM system allows users with the manager role to manage the users of the database and their permissions.

Managers are able to create new users, change passwords if required, restrict or provide access to features/records and deactivate users.

In most cases users are able to request a password reset themselves. Refer to the Can I reset my password? FAQ for further information.

If the user is unable to reset their password using this method, a manager is able to reset it for them using the following method.
