    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5009?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13436641#comment-13436641 ] 

Sumit Pandit commented on OFBIZ-5009:
-------------------------------------

Following is implementation plan -

* *security.properties* : Provide configuration for following control points :
** Enabling / Disabling of the functionality.
** Maximum number of days within user has to change the password.
** Number of days back to password expire date, when user start getting password expiration alerts.

* *Data model*
** Entity name : UserLoginPasswordHistory : Existing entity.

* *Business logic*
** Create UserLoginPasswordHistory record when a new user is created (if configured).
** Expire and then Create UserLoginPasswordHistory record when user update existing password.
** Everytime, when user login check for password expiration. If password expired then display change password screen to user. And if password not yet expired but it is close to expire display alert message to user about its expiration.
