1. The Administrator should have the capability to change the password of any User Id anytime; based on their Administrator/Security Group level authorities (must adhere to segregation of duties).

    Thank you for submitting this RFE but It does contain several different enhancement requests. Any additional details of priority would be useful in our evaluation of addressing the requests. Based on your feedback we may ask the single request to be split into multiple RFEs.
