Prevent User Creation in Root OU's

Question

Good Afternoon,

I currently have our AD navigation divided up by specific countries. The user is able to select the country OU and navigate down into the specific department OU. Is there a way I can prevent users from being created in these root country OU's so I can force the user to drill down before creating?

Thanks

Hello,

You need to use the Create User Home Page Action. For details, have a look at the following tutorial: https://www.adaxes.com/tutorials_WebInterfaceCustomization_ConfigureActionsPane.htm. For each country OU you will need to create a separate action. On the Target Container Selection step, select Allow selecting only containers/OUs located under, enter the distinguished name of the country OU and then select Disallow selecting this OU/container.
