User enforcement rules allow you to force users to create and update their Q&A profiles and notify users about password expiration. Password Manager offers three user enforcement rules: Invite users to create/update Q&A profiles, Remind users to create/update Q&A profiles, and Remind users to change password.
By using this user enforcement rule you can configure Password Manager to invite users to register with Password Manager or update their Questions and Answers profiles. If you configure this enforcement rule, users will be notified by email.
The notification schedule is defined by the Invitation to Create/Update Profile scheduled task. Note that notification starts only after this scheduled task has run. For more information on the scheduled tasks, see Invitation to Create/Update Profile Task.
NOTE: If you disable the Invitation to Create/Update Profile scheduled task, users will not be enforced to create or update their profiles.
This enforcement rule is disabled by default. To enable the rule, on the Home page of the Administration Site, expand the required enforcement rules section, click Invite Users to Create/Update Q&A Profiles, then click Enable.
To configure this enforcement rule, you must specify a user scope, conditions when an email notification should be sent and an email notification text.
