Green Screen User Setup Procedure

In order to configure Password Self Help so that you can reset your password in the future if it is lost or forgotten, you must complete one of the following procedures. (The steps you will follow depend on whether your administrator has configured Password Self Help to allow you to select your own questions, or whether your administrator has selected questions for you.) Once you have completed the following steps you will be able to reset your password autonomously using the Password Reset Procedure.

NOTE: Self-enrollment using the SELFHELP profile registers the profile in a disabled state for security reasons. To enable the newly added user, Password Self Help administrator approval is required.
