Reset an EPoS Password (System Administrator Only)

Quick Intro

If a user cannot access EPoS because they do not know their current password or they were never issued one, a system administrator can reset the user's EPoS password within Havenstar. 

Where To Find It

  • Navigate to the Set Up Users menu (or search for this via the nav bar)
  • Select the user you'd like to change the password for
  • Click Passwords
  • Choose Change EPoS Password

  • Set an EPoS Password for a User

    1. Open Set Up Users, select the user you'd like to set the new password for and click Password
    2. Select Change EPoS Password
    3. Leave the Old Password field blank
    4. Enter and confirm a new password
    5. Click Change
    6. Advise the user to restart the EPoS application for the change to take affect
    Info
    If you'd just like to clear a user's password, instead of step 4, just click No Password then continue with the steps above.

    Notes & Tips

    • Only system administrators can clear an unknown EPoS password.
    • Users cannot reset an unknown EPoS password themselves (but can if the old password is known).
    • Selecting No Password only removes the existing password; it does not create a new one.
    • After clearing the password, create a new password immediately to maintain account security.
    • Restart the EPoS application after changing the password to ensure the update is applied.
