To change your IFAS password, press CTRL + H and type "passwd" in the prompt.
 

Please note: When choosing your new password, the three types of characters (upper, lower, number/symbol) must be within the first eight characters of the password.

Changing Screen Colors

You can change the color of the Output screen and "classic view" screens but NOT the PO 7i screen. To adjust the screen color, select Edit from the Insight menu and click Options.

If you are a non-IFAS core user and use APU Look or PO functions, you may receive the notice below. This pop-up notification will display if you have left Look open and attempted to open another application or if you began to change your password but didn't finish the process. To fix this error, go to the Output View and exit the application.
