Password Services Notification

This page allows you to configure administrator notifications for the different events in Password Services.

There are two events in Password Services that trigger notifications:

• User resets a password
• User unlocks his/her account

Whenever a user triggers an event, a notification is sent to the specified administrator(s). Note that these notifications are seperate from the notifications an end user recieves after completing one of the Self Service wizards.

Selecting a notification for a Password Services event

To select a notification for an event:

1. Go to the "Notification" tab and create the notification. Instructions for this can be found here. Note that this is where you specify who receives the notification.
2. In column 1 (see image), choose the event that triggers the notification.
3. In column 2, select the notification that you created in step 1.
4. In column 3, you can create a filter so that the notification you've selected is only sent for certain users. This step is optional. An example of a filter could be "Location = Headquarters." In this case, you could create a second notification for the same event and use the opposite filter, i.e. "Location <> Headquarters," thus ensuring that administrators are notified for all events of this type.
5. Click Add.
