Business rule when account has expired

Question

I'm not entirely sure if this is possible using a business rule but what I am trying to achieve is have the business rule perform actions when a user account has expired.

Can this be acheived or would a scheduled task be the preferred method?

Hello Richard,

If you want the actions to be executed when account expires, the Business Rule will not work. The thing is that Business Rules can be triggered only by the operations performed via Adaxes. When the account expiration date passes, the account itself does not change. To execute your actions when account has expired, a Scheduled Task should be used. For information on how to schedule tasks in Adaxes, please, have a look at the following tutorial: https://www.adaxes.com/tutorials_AutomatingDailyTasks_ScheduleTasksForActiveDirectoryManagement.htm. To prevent execution of the actions from the first action set on the disabled accounts, you can add the If account is enabled condition. Your task should be like the following:

Thank you, that really cleared up my confusion. I will setup the scheduled task as suggested.
