Before you can import a command file containing user details, you must ensure that each record in the file conforms to the format required by Account Import. The correct formats for individual records are shown in the tables below and on the following page.
Each user record begins on a new line with a variable that defines the type of operation. Typical operations include adding new users or groups, moving a user or group to a new parent group, specifying a user's role, password or management group, and updating a user’s attributes. You can also include comments within the file, for example, to organize the file into sections.
The order of operations is important. Within the command file, records to create new groups must precede records to add new users to these groups. Likewise, a record to move a group must precede any records to move users into the relocated group.
If you plan to export your user details (say, from your mail server) to a command file, you could write a script or macro to prefix each user record with the appropriate operation variable.
