changed to a secure password if strong password enforcement is enabled. Two
steps are required to change the system administration password:
1. Change the system account password in the database using Database Setup.
2. Write down and inform administrators of the password change.
Step 1: Change the SYSTEM Account Password Using
Database Setup
To change the SYSTEM account password using Database Setup, follow the
same instructions listed in Change the BEST Account Password on page 208,
with the following exception: in step 4 on page 209, select the system account
from the list (“SA” by default), then click [Change Password].
Step 2: Write Down and Inform Administrators of the
Password Change
1. It is essential that you do NOT lose this password. If you do not have the
system administration password, you can potentially lose your entire
database since no one may gain access to the information.
2. Write down the password and store in a secure place that won’t get lost
3. Inform other system administrators of the password.
4. BE SURE to inform the customer that you have changed the system
password.
5. Explain the importance of the password to the customer and recommend
they keep it secure and not allow it to be “common knowledge.”
