Sage 300, one of the most enhanced and stable ERP for organizations, which is always evolving with new features and updates targeted at increasing user experience and security. Sage 300 has a feature called the “Password Never Expire” checkbox in its user management settings. This feature allows administrators to specify that a user’s password will not expire, even if the system typically enforces regular password changes. Here’s a closer look at the relevance, usage, and potential impact of this feature for businesses.
What Is the “Password Never Expire” Checkbox?

Why Is This Feature Important?
Password expiration policy are essential for maintaining security within ERP system. It ensure that the users regularly update their login credentials, while minimizing the risk of unauthorized access. However, there are some situations where passwords should remain unchanged:
Automated Users:- The Accounts which was used for automation purposes or API integrations may face delay if their passwords expires unexpectedly. With the help of this checkbox, businesses can avoid such delay while maintaining security for their user accounts.
Admin Accounts:- In some scenarios, admins may prefer certain number of accounts to have fixed password for easy access of their accounts especially in environments with multiple admins managing different roles.
The Password Never Expire option gives us the solution, giving organizations the control that they want over their password policy.
