Resolution

When a password synchronization request goes from nodeA to nodeB, the logonid on nodeB must be able to be logged on so that its authorization can be used to change the user's logonid.

If the logonid has the ACTIVE(dd/mm/yy) set to the future, that logonid cannot be used to logon to the system and therefore cannot change its password.
