Is there any way Beyondtrust support setting managed account password rotation setting to below option?

Change password every 24 hours or any specified hours instead of mentioning change password number of days and specifying the exact hour to change?

 

I am okay mentioning change password every day but looking for an option of not mentioning what hour of the day. It makes sense when want to schedule passwrod rotation at particular time that that will be useful.

Maybe the option Change Password after Release can help in this case.

Here I have some managed accounts with the Automatic Password Change set for everyday at a specific time and Change Password after Release enable.

So every time a user checks in their request or the request expires, the password is changed immediately.

@rgkessel , Thank you for your response. I understand that the password change after manual / automatic release is an option. But my question was does BeuondTrust support setting Password rotation policy to say rotate password after every 24 hours or 1 day or 2 day without mentioning what time to rotate. 

In case: Password rotation policy says “rotate password every 1 day at 23:30

Lets assume user is not retreiving the password for now, then password rotation will occur every day at 23:30. even if the last password was rotated at 20:00. If we had option to set only day or duration then password can be rotated with repsect to the password age not specific time. I understand in some use cases we will need the option to mention the time as well.
