These instructions are for re-setting a staff member's password. Every client creates their own permission groups to best suit their needs, therefore there will always be exceptions. In general most brands/stations will have an admin with the ability to re-set a staff member's password. If you are not an admin and do not have access to re-set staff passwords, please contact your brand/station admin as soon as possible. If you are unable to contact your admin, please contact the SoCast Support Desk for assistance.
