Cause

Users become locked out when their passwords expire from non-activity, or when they repeatedly attempt to login with an incorrect password. Once locked out, users must have their accounts unlocked by an administrator.

Resolution

It is possible to filter the user accounts list at the bottom of the ‘User Maintenance’ page to show only those account which are currently locked out.

To filter the user accounts list to show only accounts which are currently locked out:

1. In the ‘User Maintenance’ page select Edit Filters.
