Once the user's password is entered, it can only be reset by an system administrator who must overwrite the existing password.

Select to require users to use enhanced authentication when they log in to the application. Enhanced authentication adds a layer to the authentication process used to log in to the system. When this feature is turned on, user passwords are stored in the database in a modified form. The end result is that users may only log in to the database using the xTuple Client. If users try to access the database using a tool other than an xTuple application, they will not be able to connect. User passwords entered when logging in via the xTuple Client will not be recognized if the xTuple Client is not used. If enhanced authentication is specified for a user, that user must also select the "Use Enhanced Authentication" flag in their log in options. If enhanced authentication is not specified, users will be permitted to log in to the database using database tools other than the xTuple Client.

Select if you want the user to have access only to the Shop Floor Workbench—and to no other screens. If selected, the Shop Floor Workbench will be the only screen the user will have access to when they log in to the database. The log in screen for this user will be the same as for all users. However, once logged in, the user will only be able to see and use the Shop Floor Workbench. This option will override any other privileges which may have been assigned previously to the user.
