Create AD User – Easy User Account Creation in AD and SharePoint

Simultaneously create a new account in the defined authentication provider and add that account to SharePoint while adhering to the security policies.

Create new accounts with associated contact information for Active Directory Services, NT Services, and SQL Membership Provider through SharePoint

The User Account Setup Web Part allows SharePoint users designated by an IT administrator to add users on their own rather than relying on IT personnel to create the accounts. You can create a new authentication provider account (ADS, NT, and SQL Membership) and at the same time add the account to defined SharePoint groups in different sites. With the Active Directory authentication provider, you also can customize the information collected by defining additional attributes to be populated in both ADS and SharePoint.

Seeking the ability to approve individual account creation? No problem. The User Account Setup Web Part provides the ability to submit account creation requests for approval prior to creation. The User Account Setup Web Part also stores all transactions into a custom SharePoint list, allowing IT personnel the ability to track all new accounts created.

Out-of-the-box SharePoint does not provide IT administrators the ability to create user accounts simultaneously in their authentication provider and in SharePoint. Because of this, IT administrators are responsible for separately managing users for SharePoint customer portals, department sites, hosted applications, and the entire corporation in both the authentication provider and in SharePoint. Offloading some of this work to designated users, who have been granted special permissions by the IT administrator, allows the IT administrator to focus on higher priority tasks.
