New Users' Properties Rules

Above the capabilities of the Active Directory Synchronization Profiles, Verba provides the ability for mapping certain LDAP attributes and security group (or OU) memberships to specific properties of the synchronized AD users. With the New Users' Properties Rules, multiple rule sets can be created in order to fully automatize the user management based on Active Directory. To configure the rules, go to the Users \ Active Directory Synchronization menu, then click on the Manage New Users' Properties Rules link in the upper right corner
