I totally agree.  The project for automating new user creation is in the works, however it looks like the powers that be want this data to start “appearing” in a couple of weeks.  Fat (or phat) fingering is not an uncommon thing here so it’ll be a blessing to get all those little fingers away from new account creation.

 

Thanks again…

Unless you have a pretty small environment, hundreds of users maybe tops, you should be looking at moving from ADUC to some form of provisioning system or scripts. Not only does this make the whole process considerably faster it makes it consistent so your admins aren't looking for little niggling typoes, etc.

Hey guys,

 

I’m curious how people are populating attributes such as employeeid, employeetype, etc, specifically when creating\modifying accounts using the GUI (ADUC)?  Besides me writing something to populate the fields what other resources do I have to allow other selected users (account creators) to populate these fields?

 

TIA
