We would like Polaris Leap to generate a default password/PIN for new patron records that can be turned on or off. We would prefer if one of the options for default passwords/PINs be 6-digit birthdate MMDDYY. Patrons can update their password/PIN in Vega if they want to. It would also be great if resetting the password/PIN resets it to the default.
