Since v8: When manually creating a client admin needs to enter the password

[xyzulu]

Previously (prior to v8) you did not need to manually enter the new client password. WHMCS would generate one (or leave it empty) and then after account creation the 'reset and send a new password' could be used. This isn't a showstopper, but a little unusual considering the ability to manually edit passwords has been removed (good practice) yet creating a new client manually now is less "secure".

This is too secure, if the client claims they are not getting the reset emails, there is no way for the admin to change it. There is no log of the password reset, at least not with a link to the email,  the only option I can see if to have the client create a new 2nd account and then add that to the clients. 

 

Am I missing something?

I know how to rest the password of a user. The issue is when creating a new user manually.

I misread your message, hence why I deleted my response.
