To change a password for an employee: 

  • Navigate to the employee record.

  • Click Edit. 

  • Navigate to the Access sub-tab.

  • Click checks into the following boxes:

    • Give access.

    • Send notification email.

    • Require password change on next login.

This will give the employee access to NetSuite, inform them via email they have access and can now log in, and will create a forced prompt during login to change their password as per best practice.

Alternatively: 

  • Click a check into the box Manually Assign or Change Password.

  • Enter a password for the employee.

  • Check the box for Require Password Change on next login.

This will allow the administrator to give access to the employee with a password of their choice and then allow the employee to update it to ensure security. 

And there you have it, password changes made easily and efficiently.
