Symptom

  • In the administration console for SAP Cloud Identity Services (IAS), there is a need to change an IAS user's password policy from Enterprise or Custom back to Standard.
  • In IAS, there are three types of password policies as explained in Configuring Password Policies. They are listed below from weakest to strongest:
    • Standard
    • Enterprise
    • Custom
  • When an IAS user authenticates to an application requiring a stronger password policy, their IAS user will be assigned and must follow that stronger password policy.
