Active Directory Users/Groups

Users are created by using Active Directory users, Active Directory groups, or by
using pluggable authentication.

Active Directory Users

You can use Active Directory users to control the security access to users on an
individual basis. This is useful when each user has different access to the system
and multiple users do not share the same access.

Active Directory Groups

Active Directory groups can now be used as an authentication type within
Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012. Roles are added directly to the groups similar to
Active Directory users. If a user is associated with an Active Directory user and
group, that user receives the duties and privileges of both sets of roles.
