Changing your Axiom password

If your authentication method is Axiom Prompt, you can change your password as needed using the Desktop Client General term for using either the Excel Client or the Windows Client, both of which are installed to the user's desktop.. This feature does not apply to users who are using any other authentication method (such as Windows User Authentication), because those passwords are controlled externally from Axiom.

To change your password:

1. On the Axiom tab, in the Help group, click Help > Change Password.

   NOTE: In systems with installed products, this feature may be located on the Main or Admin tab.

   This command is only available to Axiom Prompt users.

2. In the Set Password dialog, enter your current password, then enter and confirm your new password.

   If password rules are being enforced, your password must meet the rules. A validation message will inform you of the rules if necessary. Alternatively you can click Generate Password to auto-generate a password that meets the rules. If you do this, make sure to note the generated password because you will not have another opportunity to see it. If you do not note the password and cannot log in later, an administrator will need to reset your password.

3. Click OK.

Your password is now changed. You will need to use this new password the next time that you log in.
