Many companies have password security policies that they want to apply to all users who can access the company's database (in other words, company users and firm users). Although Company System Administrators cannot edit your firm's password security policies, they are allowed to view your firm's password requirements to make sure that they comply with the company's minimum requirements.
To set up Tracker account password requirements for your users:
  1. Select
    Settings
    in the left navigation.
  2. Select
