Thanks Rov, the minimum password expire period is 30 days, but I want to set this manually for an individual user or profile that can take effect instantly, something like 'Expire All password' expires all users password immediately.
Oh!!! I don't think that can be done. Is there a particular reason why you want a user/profile password to expire instantly? You can make the user inactive if you no longer want the user to acess the system.
Deactivate Users
You can’t delete a user in the user interface or the API. You can deactivate a user in the user interface; and you can deactivate or disable a Customer Portal or partner portal user in the user interface or the API. Because users can never be deleted, we recommend that you exercise caution when creating them.
You can also reset the password through api calls:
Passwords
For security reasons, you can’t query User passwords via the API or the user interface. However, the API allows you to set and “reset” User passwords using the setPassword() and resetPassword() calls. The password lockout status and the ability to reset the User locked-out status is not available via the API. You must check and reset the User password lockout status using the user interface.
There is no option to set the Password Expiration DATE..
