Chapter 2 Getting Started With User Management 47

Shortcuts for Working With Accounts

There are a several techniques that let you manage accounts more efficiently. You can:

• Make changes to multiple accounts at once.

• Use presets, which are like templates for new accounts.

• Import user and group account information from a file.

Batch Editing

You can edit settings (if they don’t need to be unique) for multiple user accounts,

group accounts, or computer lists at the same time. Multiaccount editing is referred to

as batch editing.

To select multiple accounts, press Shift-click to select a range of accounts and/or

Command-click to select accounts individually. You can also choose Edit > Select All,

then Command-click to deselect accounts individually.

An example of when batch editing can save you time is when you need to change

preference settings for large numbers of accounts. See “Editing Preferences for Multiple

Records” on page 140.

Using Presets

You can select settings for a user account, group account, or computer list and save

them as a preset. Presets work like templates, allowing you to apply predefined settings

to a new account. Using presets, you can easily set up multiple accounts with similar

settings.

You can use presets only during account creation. You can’t use a preset to modify an

existing account. You can use presets when creating accounts manually or when

importing them from a file.

If you change a preset after it has been used to create an account, accounts already

created using the preset are not updated to reflect those changes.

For more information, see “Creating a Preset for User Accounts” on page 63.

Importing and Exporting Account Information

You can use XML or character-delimited text files to import and export user and group

account information. Importing information this way can make it easier to set up large

numbers of accounts quickly. Exporting information to a file can be useful for record

keeping or backing up user data.

For more information, see Appendix A, “Importing and Exporting Account Information.”
