How Does it Work?
The AD Bulk User Creation Tool is very easy to use.... it takes just two steps.
See the steps below
Step 1: Setup CSV Template
Open the "Bulk User Create Template.csv" file that is included with the download and fill it out. See below for required fields. All other fields are optional.
**Important**
Required Fields - These CSV fields must be filled out for each user, all other fields are optional.
- firstname
- lastname
- samaccountname
- password
Auto Created Fields
- Displayname = Firstname + lastname
- Logon Name = This is set from the samaccountname
- UPN = Set from the samaccountname
- Email = samaccountname + domain
Other
- Manager field must be a samaccountname
- OU field must be the distinguishedName of the Organizational Unit
Example CSV screenshot below
When the CSV file is filled out you can move to step two.
Step 2: Run AD Bulk Creation Tool
Open the tool by clicking on the ADBulkUserCreation.bat file
- Select the CSV file
- Enter a log file path (This is for logging errors)
- Enter your domain
- By default accounts are set to enabled and change password at next logon, uncheck these boxes to disable them.
- Click the create button.
That's it. It took about 10 seconds to create 100 accounts.
Now I can open up Active Directory Users and computers and verify the accounts. If there are errors it will be displayed in the GUI for which account failed. You will then need to check the log files for error details.
The screenshot below confirms the 100 accounts did get created.
