Changing Your "Client" Account Password

Data Warehouse users that access the Data Warehouse database directly with a query tool such as the Hyperion/Brio software are referred to as "client" users or "adhoc query" users. This is because they utilize "client" software, i.e. software that has been installed on the user's (aka client) machine and have the ability to build "adhoc" queries.

Passwords for client users expire every 180 days. The method of changing the password is different if your current password has already expired or not. Please access the online tutorials below to see and receive instructions on how you can change your password.

If you have forgotten your password and need to have it reset, please send a message to wowadmin@umd.edu for assistance.
