Can you create a username that isn’t affected by account policy?

We have an interface to erp that needs to login to agile to retrieve part data. 
We want to use an agile username and password to do it but our passwords have an account policy set to change the passwords every 3 months and that would cause an issue with the interface programs if the passwords hardcoded in the interface are not up to date. 
I’m guessing the answer is no, but just want to doublecheck: is there a way to create a username either without a password or that isn’t affected by the account policy? 

Thank you

One way around that is to setup LDAP authentication for all your normal users. Have a service account as a database account and turn off that account policy for database users.

Another would be to go into the database and set the date of the last password change for an account to be way in the future. It would then never expire.
