Automating Distribution Group Membership?

Question

Could I please get some best practice tips on how to automate Distribution Group Membership in Adaxes please?

For example:

I have a group "UK Staff"
I have Tom and Dick who have the AD "Country" field set to UK
I would like to run a task each night that will add them to the UK Staff list

But..

Tom moves to the USA
I have a group "USA Staff"
I would like to run a task each night that will add Tom to the USA Staff list

But I also need to remove Tom from the UK Staff list automatically which is where I'm not clear of the right/neat way to do it?

Thanks :)

Hello,

See the following tutorial, section Update Membership by Schedule, on Creation and Modification, screenshot in step 1: http://www.adaxes.com/tutorials_Automat ... y_schedule

Are you using Exchange? Dynamic Distribution Groups will automatically keep themselves up-to-date, based upon whatever criteria you specify. For example, I might have a group called "New York Office Employees", which may be automatically compiled via the user's AD attribute 'City' being "New York City" and 'Department' being "Administration".
