Data Source

Data Source is where you set where you want your data to come from.

The setting can look different depending on the Data Source chosen.

None

None, UMS will get no data at all. This can be useful if you want to prepare a template, but not ready to deploy it yet.

Active Directory Employee

This setting will add another column beneath the Data Source setting, where you need to have a Admin Server setting ready.

These are the things previously mentioned Admin Server needs to work:

• A description, this should be something that describes what you intend to do with it, calling it "AD - Employee" would probably be the best name if you only have 1 employee template utilizing Active Directory as a Data Source
• You need to set what Domain it needs to contact to find these users
• Then a username and password in that or at least with access to that domain to read the user profiles it needs to work.

You can press "Test Connection" to see if you configured it properly.

Now that you have made the Admin Server you need to go back to the Data Source settings to finish configuring it.

After picking the Admin Server that you just created you will meet a 'Get User setting' screen. Here you add a description and Source OU, note that you can have multiple 'Get User settings' using the same Admin Server.

Active Directory Student

The configuration of this data source is exactly the same as Active Directory Employee, but UMS treats the data differently.

Fields in the database such as UserType will reflect the setting you choose for the template.
