# Locking and security

# Administrator password

Stored as part of the project settings, the administrator password field is used to ensure that certain user actions are blocked by default. When a password is defined, blocked actions include:

Applying changes in the project settings menu.
Enabling/disabling the preset lock to prevent accidental deletion or modification.
Deleting existing recipes.

To perform these actions, the user must enter this password at least once (when requested) during the active session.

Do not forget it!

Make sure you remember the administrator password or write it down in a safe place, as there is no way to recover it from within the application.
To reset a password, you must contact Wepall technical support.
We cannot choose a password for you, so whichever you choose, make sure it is easy to remember but not so simple that anyone can guess it in just a few attempts (avoid things like "1234" or "admin"). We recommend using at least 8 alphanumeric characters, including symbols, uppercase and lowercase letters whenever possible.

# Preset lock

Presets can be locked using this padlock, which can be freely enabled or disabled as long as there is no project password defined. This lock ensures that no one can edit or delete the presets you have already created.

Take advantage

Make use of the versatility of presets to reuse them across different recipes. That is, you do not need to define each recipe from scratch—simply assign existing presets to the corresponding recipe and add any new presets it requires.
The lock is an ideal way to prevent someone from accidentally modifying your preset in order to use it in a new recipe.
