MSAD Account

  • Microsoft Active Directory (MSAD) is a directory service that allows authentication and authorization of network users.

    • If MSAD was selected in the Login Type list, the user login ID that you enter must match exactly the user's Microsoft Active Directory user ID.

    • Users will use their MSAD credentials (what is used to sign into your computer) to sign in.

Standard Account

  • Accounts that are created one at a time, or through a batch process. These accounts are not associated with MSAD.

    • User ID name and password that you enter in the user's profile

    • Users will use the assigned Username and Password to sign in., these will be different than their MSAD credentials.
