Adding Users from Active Directory

The Active Directory page allows you to add users from Microsoft Active Directory. Permissions required to access this page: Access Admin Tab and Manage Active Directory.

To open the Active Directory page, choose Admin > Configure > Security > Active Directory.

The number of current entity users, current system users, current entities in the system and remaining days in the software license are displayed at the top of the page. The rest of the page allows you to search Active Directory and specify account information and permissions for the users that you will create.

Using the Active Directory Page

First, use the Search Options fields to narrow the Active Directory users that will be shown:

• Specify the Domain to search in.

• Specify a Group Type.

• If desired, you can enter text to search for in the Group Name field to limit the groups shown.

• Click Load Groups ( ) to populate the Group drop-down list. Select the group of interest from the list.

• If desired, use the Filter By fields to select a criterion to filter the users by, and to specify the text to match.

Once you have specified all of your search criteria, click the Load Users link to populate the Active Directory Users list. Any Active Directory users that already have XFRACAS accounts will be shown in the Current XFRACAS Users list.

Use the arrows to move some or all user names from the Active Directory Users list to the New XFRACAS Users list. You can then set the basic account information, user groups, categories and permissions for all of the users in the New XFRACAS Users list. (For more details on these settings, see Managing Users.) Choose Admin > Users > Create to create the accounts.

The accounts will be created, and will appear in the Current XFRACAS Users list.
