Directory Self-Service-Deployment :
Directory self-update :
Using ADSelfService Plus' Directory Self-update feature, users can update their Active Directory profile information like their mail ID, mobile number, without administrator intervention. This reduces the help desk workload. The steps for configuring directory self-update are:
- Create a self-service policy for the domain and select directory self-update along with any other self-service features necessary.
- Create a self-update layout by specifying the fields that should be displayed to users.
-
Assign a policy to the layout, thereby allowing the users under that policy to update their information in the fields provided in the layout.
The feature also allows setting important fields as mandatory thereby forcing users to update information in those fields. To know the steps for configuring directory self-service,

- Selecting the types of employees (users, contacts, and groups) that can be searched for.
- Selecting the employee information that can be displayed during the search and the search criteria that can be used for the search.
