Onpremise CRM user not getting Onpremise AD user

Posted on by 35

Hello All,

Seeking help from you on the below scenario.

There is an on-premise CRM and on-premise Active Directory in our environment.

Earlier, we have created a user on an active directory with the name Domain\test123 and added the same in CRM also and we checked the user was able to into CRM and the user name is displayed as Domain\test123 in the CRM.


After that, we have edited the user (Domain\test12) in the active directory and kept a new name like Domain\test123456. Now the issue is that with the old users (Domain\test123) not able to login into CRM but when we use the new name Domain\test123456 then we are able to login into CRM, however in the CRM, the still old user display name is appearing(Domain\test123).

As per the Security team, the new user name should be updated automatically in the CRM or CRM should not allow login with a new user name since the old user name is still appearing there.

Please help and let us know is there any that we can sync CRM with the active directory so that if any change happens with the User name its should get updated in the CRM as well.

    Hello,

    For Online version of Dynamics CRM there is a background job runs which sync User from Azure AD to Dynamics CRM. However for onpremise we don't have any job running.

    You will need to manually open the CRM record and update the Username field with New value and click on Save.

    Please mark my answer verified if this is helpful!

    Hello,

    There is no such thing as user sync between AD and CRM. If you have a need to update the user you will have to open user in CRM, edit the domain name using the new one and save it.
