The maximum number of days to keep the same password is set in CW Admin. This utility can be found in the business tier directory (Default location: C:\Program Files\CAREWare\RW CAREWare Business Tier).

In version 5:

  1. Open the utility and press “Stop Server”.
  2. Click on the Common Storage Settings tab.
  3. Locate the “MaximumDaysToKeepSamePassword” row in the cmm_st_pk row
  4. Change the value for that row in the cmm_st_number column to your liking.
  5. Click on a different row/column to save the change.
  6. Click on the "Server Settings" tab.
  7. Click on "Start Server".

Important: Remember this is a security feature. Passwords should be renewed on a regular basis.
