You can use the View drop-down list at the top of the Organization tree to display your groups, or your manager/subordinate hierarchy. Once the import is complete you will see you the Organization tree displayed. Users that have been manually added will not be affected.Ĭlick OK to complete the Import Organization wizard and begin the import. Note: When merging, only users that have previously been added from your LDAP/LDIF directory will be affected. Use the ‘keep users / keep details’ options if importing from a different domain or root DN.

The Merge options enable to you to keep or remove users that can no longer be found in the directory, as well as keep or update existing user’s details. For example, first import your Organization from one domain (or one Root DN on your domain), with the Overwrite existing organization tree option set to create an initial Organization tree, then run the Import Organization wizard again to import your Organization from another domain (or a different Root DN on your domain) and merge the results into your existing Organization tree. The Merging page enables you to use the Import Organization wizard multiple times, and merge the results into your existing Organization structure. Once you have specified all the Groups you would like to use in your reporting process, click Next. For example, call the group ‘Domain’ and use the attribute ‘dc’.

To create a default set of permissions that apply to your entire organization, create a top-level group using an attribute that everyone is a member of. Tip: Later, you’ll need to configure Web Module access permissions for people and/or groups. For inconsistent OU structures, you can use the Single group from Root node option, and use the Import Organization wizard multiple times (usually configured with multiple task actions within a Task) with the Merge options set appropriately, to create groups from multiple Root DNs in your directory. For example, if you have defined OUs for all your Offices directly underneath your Root DN, with user objects located anywhere underneath those OUs, then use the Immediate children of Root option, or the Children ‘n’ levels below Root option. Use this option to select OUs relative to the Root Distinguished Name that you specified on the Directory Server page. Or if your users are in a consistent OU structure, specify either Parent of the user node, or Node ‘n’ levels above to access the attribute on the appropriate parent OU container. For example, if you are using the ‘Department’ attribute on the user objects, then select Relative to user and select User node. Use this option if the attribute is located on the user object itself or on one of its parent OU containers. You can change this by selecting View | Advanced Features to show the Attribute Editor with real attribute names when editing a User or OU. To import the name of an OU, use the attribute ‘OU’.īy default, Active Directory Users and Computers hides the real attribute names. For example, enter ‘physicalDeliveryOfficeName’ to import the Office attribute from Active Directory.

User Objects in Active Directory have a number of attributes, including department, office, description, company, and you can also place user objects in OU containers, and configure attributes on those containers. The Grouping page enables you to configure how you would like users grouped, such as by Departments, Offices, OUs etc.
