Creating User Templates
ManageEngine ADManager Plus :: Help Documentation
Templates play an important role in maintaining different permissions for different levels
of users. You can create as many templates as required to suit your needs, which can
then be used in creating user accounts by just specifying the user names. To create a
user template follow the steps below:
1. Click the AD Mgmt tab.
2. Click the Create User Template link available under Create Template. This
opens the Create Template dialog.
3. Specify a name and description for the template.
4. Specify the values for User Profile attributes. Note: Selecting the option
"Automatically append numbers starting from 2, if there are any duplicate names"
will enable to create duplicate names prefixed with numbers. Example: If you try
to create a user named 'john' which already exists, ADManager Plus will duplicate
the name with 'john2' and so on.
5. Select the Account Details tab and specify the account properties.
6. Select the Contact Details tab to specify the contact information about the user.
7. Select the Exchange Server tab to specify the exchange attributes
8. Select the Terminal Services and specify the terminal services attributes.
9. Select the Custom Attributes link tab and enable the Run Custom Script on the
Successful User Creation checkbox, to invoke any customized script immediately
after user creation.
10. After specifying all the attributes as required, click Save Template.
The templates thus created will be available in the bulk user creation wizard from where
you can select to apply templates for the users.
For details on the user attributes, refer to the Microsoft Documentation here and here.

Note:
1. To create Mailbox Enabled Users in Exchange 2007, you would
require the Exchange Management Console, failing which the legacy
Mailbox will be created.
2. For attributes like Logon Name, Display Name, Email, etc., you can
choose any of the formats listed in the combo box. The chosen
format will be automatically applied when you add users based on
this template.
3. When specifying the Local Path for the Home Folder for the users,
you can use any LDAP Attributes in the path, which will be replaced
during user creation dynamically. For example, a path can be
specified as C:\Documents and Settings\%LogonName%, where,
%LogonName% will be replaced by the corresponding Logon Name
of the user dynamically.
