Hello,

Basically you just have to re create the account_new page (in the administration module). There you will see that the entity AccountPasswordData is used. Then the save microflow set the password to the account entity.

If you are using the Mendix Studio Pro try to find in the App Explorer the “ShowPasswordForm” Microflow:

and call it in your button.

I hope it can help you.

To create a registration page, first, you need to create an entity containing all the attributes you want to gather from the user. Then, you can generalize the registration entity within the account entity system module. Next, create the NewEdit page for the registration form and provide a link to the signup page.

Afterward, you need to create two microflows. The first one checks the validation of the registration NewEdit page. The second one is to create an account. First, retrieve the user's role, then create the account, show a success message, and close the page. Once your information is saved in the account entity of the system module, you can use the signup page to login.

My advice would be to follow the Learning Path containing a section on allowing anonymous users to register. See a screenshot of part of the excersise.

That way you will be able to create the logic step by step and you will understand how your customizations work together with the out of the box functionality.
