If you are considering purchasing tools, DSRAZOR for Windows can create
customized interfaces that display all of the user properties you want to
manage in one view, without any tabs. Additionally you can implement
pre-populated drop down lists which are especially useful for attributes
like title and department.
For attributes like employeeID you can use a data validation mask to ensure
that people are entering in the right number of characters and numbers.
The nice thing about creating these customized managment forms is that you
do not have to give a universal management tool to someone to enable them to
update these attributes. You could use DSRAZOR to create a form that you
could safely give to your Human Resources department. You can control what
they can and cannot see... as well as control what they can and cannot
change.
