About the Active Directory Connector

The optional Kronodoc Active Directory Connector enhances Kronodoc user and group management with Microsoft Active Directory® Services (AD) support. The Active Directory Connector makes user management more efficient in organizations that use Active Directory by importing user account and group information from Active Directory into Kronodoc. This is useful to keep Kronodoc consistent with Active Directory and avoid duplicate entry of the information.

In Kronodoc, the user accounts and groups that are retrieved from Active Directory are called global users and global groups. Kronodoc access (local) groups can safely be used with global users and global groups.

Note    The Active Directory Connector is installed if the folder named Global groups appears in a workspace configuration tree.

Working with the Active Directory Connector is described in the following topics.
