If you have the user activation email for requesters enabled, they can set up a password by clicking on the activation link.

    If you are an admin, account admin or any other agent with "super admin" controls, you will be able to change a requester's password by going to their page. Requesters will not receive any automatic notification about the password change.

    However, agents will not be able to set passwords for a requester who doesn't have an email address associated with it.
