Best practice is to always use a domain account with the password set to never expire for the service identity account when installing PPS Planning.  These settings can be adjusted later, but can create unwanted problems that will be difficult to discover.  When the account designated as the service account has a password expiration, the information is not propagated through PPS and this account can no longer run services.

This is an installation level setting, so it is wise to understand the nature of this account and plan accordingly.  All applications created within your installation will be dependent on this account.
