    The complexity requirements I have been asked for are:

    Password History - number of previous passwords remembered and unable to be re-used.

    Sage Account (Sage ID) is a central identification service we use across our product and service range.

    For Sage 200 Standard & Sage for Education its the login mechanism for the product. For Sage 200 Professional its used to connect services to the product.

    Due to the nature of Sage ID any changes have to be considered across the entire product range.

    Minimum password length is already enabled at greater than 8 characters

    Password complexity, please expand on the requirements. We already have a number of configuration settings here such as length and not permitting common passwords.
