MyGeotab: User flagged for password change and not receiving emailed reports

Updated 

Symptoms

  • Audit logs show: "Report not sent as User was flagged for password change "
  • Report not emailed to User

Cause

" Force Password change on next login " is set to Yes . We stop sending emails to users who have been flagged to change their credentials. If the user did not change his password (possibly did not take action on a password reset email sent to them), we flag the user/ email as potentially compromised. As a security measure, we put a halt on their account until they change their password, confirming they are a valid user.

Workaround

  1. Head to Administration > Users
  2. Select user
  3. Force Password change on next login is set to Yes. Switch that to No
  4. Save

Resolution

Update/Change the password for the user. Steps for password resets can be found here: MyGeotab: How can I reset my password
