License Statistics lets you import user groups you have defined in an LDAP directory. Importing your user groups from LDAP eliminates the need to create user groups manually, which can be time consuming if you have a large number of users.
Importing your LDAP user groups also gives you one centralized place to manage your groups. License Statistics refreshes the user group data every 6 hours, so changes to user groups made in Active Directory, such as newly added or removed users, will be reflected automatically in License Statistics.
To import your LDAP user groups, you must provide the information needed to connect to your LDAP server, as described in section 6.13, Connecting to an LDAP server.
You can use the Microsoft administration tools on the Active Directory server to exclude any of your Active Directory user groups from being imported. To do this, add "License_Statistics=No_Import" to the note field of the group properties for each of the user groups you do not want to import, as shown in the example below.
