Reset a locked account

When a user fails to provide the correct password in three consecutive attempts, TaxWise Online locks the account. Once the account is locked, you need to reset the password so you are able to log in.

If non-Admin users are unable to reset the password, they should contact the Admin or a user with the PasswordMaintenance role. After the password has been reset the user will receive an email containing a temporary password. The user will be prompted to change the password following the guidelines shown on-screen.

To reset the Admin password you must contact Customer Support. After the Admin password is reset the user will enter their Registration Code as the password. An electronic authorization will be sent to the email address on file for the account.

To unlock the account, use the following steps:

1. Click the Click here to reset your locked account link.
2. Enter the Client ID and User Name of the locked account.
3. Click Next.
4. You will be sent an email containing a temporary password to the email address associated with your user name. You will be prompted to change the password following the guidelines shown on-screen.
