Look depends at what all locations is that password used and what happens like i know there are some firewalls and 3rd party softwares that need password so once a password is changed it has to be updated on those applications as well so thats what you need to know

Ideally Admin password shouldnt be changed as what best we do is always keep the Admin account not shared to anyone and create Service accounts for Applications to use so we know where whats being done ..... not sure where all the password might be cached or manually put-in
