Info

You cannot manually remove LDAP user groups. If you disable LDAP, the imported user groups will persist.

To remove previously imported LDAP user groups, it is recommended to configure the LDAP import filter to exclude all users from the search results. The next scheduled run or manual import will synchronize users and user groups. All users who do not match the filter will be disconnected from LDAP groups. Empty groups will be automatically deleted.

Using import flags

Info

Although retained for compatibility purposes, the License_Statistics=No_Import and License_Statistics=Import flags described below are no longer needed for License Statistics v6.0 and newer. As of License Statistics v6.0, you can specify any valid LDAP filter using the Enable LDAP Users Import option in the Administration: LDAP Configuration page, which is a much easier method for choosing which groups and users to import.

You can use the Microsoft administration tools on the Active Directory server to individually specify which of your Active Directory user groups should be imported. If you do not have any import flags set for a group, only the users that already exist in License Statistics are imported.
