How do I configure the system to allow user passwords to expire after a certain period?

By default, the system does not allow passwords to expire.

The "password expiry period" setting can be enabled, where the number of days can be specified, which will enforce a regular change of passwords in conjunction with the Security module.

Note!

This setting will apply to Employee level users, Company level users, as well as Business Partner users.
