[davidetempesta]

Hi,

I'm not able to find the bulk account provisioning option on Web Admin Panel.
This feature was removed on version 7Beta2?

Thanks.

Thanks Bill.
Then I can not import and create accounts using a csv?
A solution is not specified in the Bug.

Let me know.

You can import them from another server or an xml file (amongst other options) using the wizard.

How to import from an XML file? What is XML format required? I can't find any info on this..Used to do it through the admin page. Thanks

Why would you think that? Read comment #2: Bug 43543 – Bulk Provisioning - Include option of yes/no for password change upon first login

You can also take a look at some of the fixed and outstanding bug reports, if you like. Bugzilla and the Product Portal are always a good starting place to search for changes to Zimbra.

The new account migration wizrad is great if you want to pull from exchange or another zimbra. almost a complete waste if you create a new domain and need to create 100+ email accounts. Sure you can mess around with xml import, but even that is for migration from one server to another.

What this means is instead of getting a low level employee with basic access and spreadsheet skills to create my 100+ accounts. I now have to get one of the engineers to play with scripts and command line provisioning on the server.

A waste of the engineers time IMO, and the low level employee has nothing to do in the meanwhile
