AboutPeter Choi Expertise I am a senior Oracle DBA, PeopleSoft Administrator and Project Manager with
10+ years experience. I have been working with PeopleSoft (HRMS 5, 7, 7.x and
8.x, 9.0), Oracle RDBMS (7.3 - 11gR1) on various Unix and Windows platforms, and some Oracle Application Server (9i/10g). I also have experience with the configuration and administration of BEA`s Tuxedo
and WebLogic for PeopleSoft 8.x and 9.0.
Question Hi there, auditors are requesting screen shots of password setup panels that define password length, aging, etc. I find nothing anywhere in our old version of PS (7.01). I am under the impression that password length for this version is determined by Oracle. I am aware that is a Set Password option at the logon screen however. Are you aware of any aging options, password length options, etc.?
thank you
Answer Hi Julie,
PeopleSoft 7.x does not contain the ability to predetermine the password length, strength or aging. Starting with PeopleSoft 8.x, Oracle has introduced the ability to define and age passwords. The latest version of PeopleSoft is 9.0 (8.9 is still in use) along with PeopleTools 8.49. PeopleTools 8.5 is expected to be released shortly.
