If you use FH Web to access FH 7 on the Cloud, your department FH administrator can now change your password in FH, and it will automatically synchronize with your FH Web account so that the same password works for both FH and FH Web and you have fewer passwords to remember.
Note: This feature is designed for FH Cloud customers, and does not function with FH Web installed locally at your department.
