Import Active Directory ID

Use Import Active Directory ID to update the Active Directory or Certificate ID for multiple users at one time.

When executed, this process updates or assigns an Active Directory ID to individual Costpoint users. After the process is completed, you can check the updates for each user in the Active Directory or Certificate ID field on the Authentication tab in Manage Users (SYMUSR).

Note: The input file layout may contain fields that are available only in Costpoint Advanced. If you are using Costpoint Essentials, these fields are excluded from the import process and may be left blank or null when you create the input file.

Input File Excel Template

For Costpoint 2025.x and later releases, you can download the Excel template file specifically designed for this preprocessor from the Costpoint Preprocessor Guides page on the Deltek Learning Hub.

For Costpoint 8.1, the input file is available on the Developer Resources page in the Costpoint Information Center.

Excel templates for the other Costpoint preprocessors can be found in these same locations.
