How it works

Each task, the steps to run it, and the screen it happens on.

  1. 01

    User templates

    Create templates with pre-filled attributes like department, OU and group membership. Select a template when creating a new user and those fields populate automatically, so you are not entering the same details every time. Templates pay off wherever you create users with the same values week after week.

    CSV import and bulk creation

    Import users from a CSV file to create hundreds of accounts in minutes. Download the CSV template, fill in details like name, username, password and OU, then import the file. Each entry is validated before the accounts are created and any errors are flagged so you can fix them first. Account options such as user must change password at next logon can be set during the import.

    Attribute configuration

    Configure over 40 user attributes during account creation, including job title, department, manager, office, phone number and address fields. Set them individually or in bulk through the CSV import. Every attribute maps directly to Active Directory, so accounts are fully populated from day one.

    Group membership assignment

    Assign users to security and distribution groups as part of provisioning. Add them to one or many groups during single account creation, or include the assignments in your CSV import. Combined with templates, every new user gets the right membership for their role or department automatically.
