ADManager Plus offers automatic purging of contact objects off your Active Directory. Basically, it is a scheduler that combs the network or the specified container looking for contacts to be deleted and gets Active Directory rid of them. In environments, where there is a need for routine bulk delete operation for Active Directory contacts, this feature proves to be very helpful. But setting up an automation using conventional methods like native AD tools, PowerShell, etc. is easier said than done.
ADManager Plus does not resort to blind bulk deletion of contacts; instead, it implements checkpoints in the automated process via an approval workflow engine.
Approval Workflow is a linear hierarchy which clearly defines who reviews the process and who approves it.
Workflow available in ADManager Plus is configurable, wherein you can define various levels of pit stops for the automated process. For example: Assume, you decide to have a reviewer/ approver and executor for this automatic contact purging process. In this case, the automated process will first generate a report of contacts to be deleted and subjects it to review. Once reviewer is done perusing the report and approves it, the process moves on to the next stage, which is the approver.
You specify the runtime for the bulk contact delete scheduler and where to look for to-be-deleted contacts. When it's runtime, the scheduler sweeps the mentioned container, and if it finds any contacts in there, it reports it to the reviewer. Once the reviewer is satisfied with his perusal and gives a nod, the process moves ahead to the approver, who can do away with the contacts with a single press of a button.
