You can run scripts to perform any custom actions, as per your organization's needs, as a follow up to any Active Directory management operation performed using ADManager Plus. For example, if you want a team's manager to be notified every time an employee is provisioned for the team or send a welcome email containing the AD username and password to a new employee, you can do so by adding a custom script for it in the user creation template. The following steps will guide you with setting up custom scripts: 

1. Log on to ADManager Plus
   

2. Navigate to Management > User management > User templates > User creation templates.
   

3. Enter the name and description of the template.
   

4. Likewise, enter the required details in the respective tabs.
   

5. In the Custom attributes tab, check the Run custom script on successful user creation option.
   

6. In the Script Command text box that opens up on selecting the run custom script option, specify the location of the script in one of the formats below.
   

1. cscript c:\dir1\scr.vbs %userName%
   

2. cscript c:\dir~1\scr.vbs %userName%
   

3. cscript scr.vbs %userName%
   

Note: Instead of specifying a naming format, you can explicitly specify the user name; in this case you must provide the path in the following format:

cscript "c:\dir 123\scr.vbs" testuser

7. Click Save Template.
