there a better way to allow a user to change their password?

Hello everyone!

I have a question. I have an application that requires employee control by Registration/Password, where everyone has a default password, but it can be updated if they wish. After a long period of work, I managed to make it work as follows.

The user accesses the "Change Password" option from the menu screen, which redirects them to a login form. There, they enter their registration and password.

After filling out the login form with valid credentials, the user is redirected to a specific view_detail, which is a slice of the user table that has a filter {matricula} = {last-record}, where {last-record} corresponds to the formula shown in the image below, which retrieves the most recent record from the "matricula" column on the login screen.

It sounds that you are using a homegrown login system. If so , AppSheet discourages it.

Require sign-in: The Essentials - AppSheet Help

Please take a look at the section "Can I secure an app without making a user sign-in?" in that article.

Some AppSheet recommended alternatives are 

Control user access using Okta - AppSheet Help

Control user access using AWS Cognito - AppSheet Help
