hi,
While trying to login to the SAP system with my initial password, the system does not prompt me to change my initial passwd and lets me in, could anyone let me know how can i change the system to force change the initial passwd.
thank you

Please provide more details about "your system".
Typically causes:
- Your user ID is either of type SERVICE for which password changes are not required and they cannot change their own passwords either. So you are "consuming" a service and prior authentication does not have anything to do with the authentication of the SAP system.
- You are logging on from an external client system which is calling RFC's to logon to the SAP system. By default, this only prompts for password change or rejects the logon attempt if you instruct the system to do so.
Please provide more details.
Cheers,
Julius

Yes, if it is your ID (or your system...) then you have the right to change it to one which you know, and not shared with an admin, a log file or program...
Cheers,
Julius
