Card Expiration Date Settings

By default the IDMS specifies a 5 year max for a card expiration date. To configurate the years the card is valid, the Card Validity setting can be used. 

Creating an expiration date past 5 years requires a CMS change. Perform the procedures in the CMS Configuration section to be able to set the expiration date past 5 years.

Procedure

Example

1

Go to administration, Credential Types

2

Locate the credential type to be updated and press Manage

3

Within the "Issuance and Printing" options, locate the "Card Validity". Enter the number of years the card should be valid for.

4

When complete, press the update button.

CMS Configuration

When setting an expiration date past 5 years, the CMS system must be updated. The procures are as follows:

  1. Go to the CMS server

  2. Go to the folder c:\ProgramData\HID Global\Credential Management System\Shared Files

  3. Backup the PIVEnrollment.properties (in case it needs to be restored)

  4. Edit the PIVEnrollment.properties

  5. Locate the ExpirationDate.store_enforcedFormat.maxDuration.value setting

  6. Set the value to the desired years. For example, the configuration below is for a 6 year max expiration.
