BoostSolutions’ Password Change & Expiration allows users to change their own passwords from SharePoint without administrator intervention. This product also has sending expiration notification emails to warn users before their passwords expire, sending confirmation emails after users have successfully changed their passwords and other features. Also, users can identify the domain and account names when changing their password. This article will demonstrate how to show domain and account in the web part.
Users will be able to specify the domain and account name before changing the password.
The web part is added to the SharePoint site. For this article we added it to the site page called Password Change and Expiration. You can check our other article to get more information on how to add the web part.
