Automation & Automation Policies
You can now completely automate crucial or routine Active directory tasks that deprive your IT administrators of their time and energy! With the use of “user management templates”, these automated process become totally systematized. Most importantly, you can set up rules/policies which allow you to automatically execute a task and also its related/supplementary tasks in a sequence and schedule specified by you.
When you want to track the automated tasks, such as the need to know when your automation was run, was it successful, how many tasks it involved or any such thing for that matter, the “Automation History” feature will come to your aid. It doesn’t end there, you no longer have to remember tasks or dates for follow up; ADManager Plus lets you sequence follow up tasks and automatically execute them at pre specified intervals…Know more

The ‘Workflow’ feature in ADManager Plus helps you to design and fit a standardized workflow structure for the Active Directory tasks in your organization. The workflow propels the Active Directory task through the configured approval staff. When managers and administrators assign tasks to their sub-ordinates for administrative ease, they might be apprehensive about losing control over task and worried about its quality or outcome. ADManager plus allows these managers or administrators to keep a check on the tasks as they are being done.
Furthermore, the new Workflow is equipped with ‘Assigning rules’ to channel the delegated Active Directory tasks only through intended workflow agents, hence making the process more efficient. It defines what task should be assigned to which workflow agent and what priority to associate with it.
‘Notification rules’ help notify workflow agents about the changes that are to happen or have happened, through mails or messages. This facility expedites the completion of a task, as crucial changes or requests are communicated to the concerned users immediately…Know more
