Creating a template account
The following steps are used in SharePoint 2013. The steps may vary in other versions.
In order to create a template account for SharePoint, you must create an account in Active Directory and then import it into SharePoint.
Note
When creating a template account, ensure that the User logon name and User logon name (pre-windows 2000) fields match, or new accounts created using this template may be created with an incorrect value.
If you wish to use different Active Directory and pre-Windows 2000 logon names, you must modify the configured action for the corresponding attributes in Bravura Security Fabric .
To import the Active Directory template user into SharePoint, navigate to the central administration page for your site, then:
Click Site Actions > Site Settings.
Click People and Groups.
Choose the group you want the template user to be a member of. The template user will receive their permissions based on that group.
Click New > Add Users.
Enter the name of the template user you created in Active Directory, then click Check Names.
Click OK.
