Create user action

The Create user (AD) script action is the main action of the form project. The action creates the user account in the specified domain. The inputs of the script (action) are the values of the variables %FirstName% and %LastName%. These variables are used by the name generation algorithm. The Default name generation algorithm is specified for this property.

The algorithm uses 3 input variables: %FirstName%, %MiddleName% and %LastName%. The %MiddleName% is always empty, the %FirstName% and %LastName% variables are specified in the Visual Basic Script. The outputs of the name generation algorithm are the values of the variables %UserName% and %FullName%. These values are used to create the user account. The %UserName% variable is exported to the list of variables. The password of the new user account is generated as part of the action and exported to variable %Password%.

In UMRA, variables play an important role. Some variables are used as input and others as output variables. Other variables are generated by the script and only used in the script actions. The interface functions of the UMRA COM objects support input and output variables.
