Bulk User Template Creation
I am evaluating ADManager Plus and when I am looking at the bulk user creation Template, I do not see where I am able to add any security groups to these templates. I would like to be able with this one template to add standard NTFS groups and Exchange Distro groups, but do not see where this is an option? Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you. Mark

Android app - Unable to contact ADManager plus server
HI all, i wonder if anyone encounter the same problem. I can use almost all the function on the app, delete user, enable user, disable user, unlock.

Please assist .
User Principle Name
Hi Everyone Just found this software and started to play around with it's features. We import several users at once (sometimes hundreds) into different OU's etc. My main problem is that we have a generic naming convention for the users and that is firstname.surname. When I create a csv with the details (givenName, sn, Department etc.) wand try to import it into the software, it automatically generates a User Principle Name using "givenName"+"sn" but this isn't what we need as we separate these by
The New iPhone app is amazing.

All IT managers need this handy piece of software. You do not know what your missing. Thanks ME and ADManager Plus team for stepping up and getting this out to us.
ADmanager, Office 365 and proxyAddresses
Hi guys, I am running ADmanager and office 365, what I need to do as part of a user creation template is populate the LDAP attribute "proxyAddresses" based on the users username.

Modify Computer behavior
Is there a way to modify computers with my own templates the same way we modify users? For example, if I search (top right search box) AD for a user account, then click on one of the results, a window pops up where I can select a template. When I search for a computer and click on a result, it just shows AD Explorer where I can't modify anything

Why can't my Technicians see their templates? & laggy Performance
I am testing ADM+ I have set up a template that the admin can see when going to create a new user, I have created a user and added them as a technician. Initially I added them with just the template they would need but they could not see it. I then set template's to all. The don't get the "Change" link. The user also does not see the "Modify User" option. Performance is also very slow moving between pages. This is on a fresh clean AD with just 1 new user! Cheers Rob
Delegated user only sees the default template.
I am testing ME ADM+ on a clean test domain. I have added one new technician, and delegated him to be able to create users and selected all the templates (for testing). Only the default template is available when he logs in. Any ideas, it's holding up my testing. Cheers Rob

User Creation Templates Duplicate Detection
Our Companies naming policy is to use FirstLetter of Given Name, then surname, e.g. msmith for Mark Smith. Where there already is an msmith, then we use the First Two letters of Given Name, then surname, e.g. mismith for Michael Smith. Should we have two Michael Smith in the company, then we continue using letters from the firstname, this time three letters, so it will be micsmith for the second Michael Smith. So far, at best I seem to only be able to make and use two formats: FirstLetter of Given
Custom template not the default on both domains
Hi there I need to give Servicedesk access to perform certain tasks over two domains. Our current license is 2 domains and 5 techs. I have created new user templates for both domains however I can only tick one or the other as default. This means that when I change domain to create user from the default, the selected template is called System Template and not the customised one I have created. I can select it from the list but am trying to make this as easy to use as possible. Do you have a solution

Non super-admins have non-writeable fields in user creation templates
I've created a template for single user creation, however when I log in as a non-admin user to test the template, a lot of the fields, such as Password and Description, are grayed out - non-writeable. The fields are not set to read-only. I've assigned all permissions to this user except SuperAdmin with no luck. When I assign the SuperAdmin role to this user, everything works as expected. I am using impersonation as well. Does anyone have any ideas? I am using the evaluation version because the
Modify User Templates - Change Value in Memeber of Field
Hi Everyone. I am trying to create a modify user template that will change a value in the Member of field without removing all the other values. example if a user is a member of Group A, Group B, and Group C. I want to be able to create a template to modify the user so that if they have Group B it needs to be replaced with Group D.

Feature Request: Domain Order
On Domain Settings, for Multiple Domain, be able to specify a display order. We have 6 domains, 3-4 are in use, and 2 legacy. Even in AD Manager Plus, it's not consistent, showing domain listed in one order in AD Mgmt, and in a different order in AD reports. However, we'd like to specify the display order, so we can push our legacy ones to the bottom of the list and order our 3-4 current domains in order of preference. We do currently use the "Default Domain" as our primary user domain, however we
Feature Request: Bulk Operations filtering by Group
We would like the select by Group functionality available in all the Bulk operations for users, exchange, terminal service, computers and groups. Allowing us to enable, move, modify etc. based on Group membership. In Addition, the “Modify Groups” under Group Management on the horizontal toolbar, is incorrect, it appears to be a singular group modification option, and we’re not able to modify multiple groups in bulk. This is labelled correctly if using the left hand vertical menu. Additionally, when

Feature Request: Customise Interface
AD Self Service provides various options for customisation, and while I've managed to replace the logo in ADManager Plus, it's lacking in customisation options compared to AD Self Service. In particular, along with a separate request for domains on the login page, we would also like to add additional text on the login screen, along the lines of the standard "For authorized users of "company name" only... etc etc." perhaps a "brief" few lines, but clicking/hovering it, gives the full text, which is
Deprovisioning Users?
I was hoping there was a way to right-click or select deprovision user, when a user object needs to be disabled. Much like ActiveRoles Server, where you would right-click the object, select deprovision, and it would go through a series of tasks. Including, disabling user, setting pw to random, disabling mailbox, moving to Disabled Users, etc. It only appears to be an automated task? Is this the truth? How do you remedy disabling mailboxes and hiding them in Exchange?
Exclude Disabled Users From User Reports
We have a lot of return employees in our external offices so we don't delete their AD users, we disable them and move them into a child OU. When I run a user report, is there a way to exclude disabled users? For instance, if I'm going by state, I'll pick that state in the Chose OU section, but not its child Disabled OU, but the report grabs those anyway. If I can't exclude by the container I pick, can I exclude by it's Active/Disabled status in AD? I think there's a way to do it from Group Reports,
How to create room and resource exchange mailboxes?
I don't think this is possible but i figured i'd ask anyway. Is it possible to create room and resource exchange mailboxes via AD manager plus? We leverage the product to allow our help desk to create + manage mailboxes and accounts without needing to grant them access to traditional AD and Exchange management tools. Currently room and resource mailboxes are created as if they were user mailboxes which is not ideal as they cannot be scheduled as if they were rooms or resources. Thank You.
Feature Request: Extending search for objects
Hello, is it possible to extend the search for objects (e.g. a group) such that the search term will also be used in the description? Assume you have an environment in which groups are just numbered and you have several hundreds of them. Finding the right group can be cumbersome then...unless the search also uses the description. Another search related question: If you have more than one domain which trust each other but are in different forrests. How to search and add an account from the different
Preserving variables in Terminal settings
Within our organization, we use the following format for Terminal Profile paths: \\Vicctxsync01\wtsprofiles$\%location%\%username% However, when I use ADManagerPlus to create an account (either single or bulk) the path is changed to: \\Vicctxsync01\wtsprofiles$\\%username% It leaves two slashes and removes the %location% variable, which is a custom variable used by our Terminal Services team. Does anyone know of a way to preserve the string of text entered into the Terminal path, regardless
Permissions for Folders
Currently I'm unable to use the "Permissions for Folders" report. I select the domain, shared resource path, and tell it to include all subfolders, but when I generate - I get a no data available for specified criteria. The same thing happens when I only include the parent folder. If I run the Shares in servers report, and click on "permissions" after the report is run, I see everything I need, but there is no way to do an export on that part of the data. ADManager is running as a service.
Added second domain, but only admin account can see it
We're on latest build 6241. Using built-in admin account, I have added both of our domains with admin credentials for each. Works fine when I'm logged in as admin. But if one of our technician accounts logs in (and they have super admin rights), they only see the primary domain. If they try to add the second domain again, they get an error that we have reached the limit for our license (2 domains). I have opened a ticket but wanted to see if anyone had a quick answer on here..
How do I setup correct automation of inactive users?
I'm working on implementing ADManager and is trying to figure out how I can disable inactive users. I have found that Automation is available in the Pro version so I want to use that. However, I need to filter on OU where the users are located. In the current setup I can only see that it is possible to filter on user attributes. But the reports that Automation runs on, can these be filtered on OU? If it is not possible to filter on OU, then I need to propose a change in our AD structure to my internal
Define Office 365 Settings
On the page to set office365 settings, I'm prompted: Windows Azure AD module must be installed on the machine where ADManager Plus is installed. I installed both the sign on assistant and the Azure AD Module.

Disallow setting primary group
Hi, I want to let users add and delete group memberships within the OU I assigned to them. The member of-field within single user adjustment works just fine except that I want to disable the set primary group button. I have tried several ways to disable this within AD delegation, but disabling this button seems not to be a feature (or it is not working as it should). Can somebody help me with this?
