Group settings

Security group for template

This group will be created in the "OU for security groups" if it does not exist.

UMS will remove users that does not belong in the group when it runs. It will add users that are missing as well.

Disregard keepalive

Enabling this causes UMS to ignore users that are active because they are in the keepalive period. They will not be added to the group.

Distribution group for template

The group will only be created if there is an Exchange setting attached to the template. UMS will not use this group/field for anything without an Exchange setting on the template.

This group will be created in the "OU for distribution groups" if it does not exist.

UMS will remove users that does not belong in the group when it runs. It will add users that are missing as well.

Disregard keepalive

Enabling this causes UMS to ignore users that are active because they are in the keepalive period. They will not be added to the group.

Nice to know

UMS will create a mail-enabled security group if "Security group for template" and "Distribution group for template" match.
