Cool thanks a lot.<br />
<br />
So if I wanted to do it for a single user, would it be:<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-37028881-1">Set-QADUser -identity JDoe -manager RDoe (to make RDoe the manager of JDoe)?</code></pre>
</div>

I've been looking into some PowerShell scripts for AD, as well as some of Quest ActiveRoles cmdlets, but am not sure how I could do something like this. <br />
<br />
Can you update a user's Manager/Direct Report (see AD properties &gt;&nbsp;organization &gt;&nbsp;manager) with a command? And could you also read the names from a text file and update the Manager name for each person (per line)?

Windows PowerShell is a task automation and configuration management framework from Microsoft, consisting of a command-line shell and associated scripting language built on the .NET Framework. PowerShell provides full access to the Component Object Model (COM) and Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), enabling administrators to perform administrative tasks on both local and remote Windows systems as well as WS-Management and Common Information Model (CIM) enabling management of remote Linux systems and network devices.

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.

A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.
