How to Sync a user account name which was changed in AD to SharePoint



How to Sync a user account name which was changed in AD to SharePoint.

This is the scenario most of the administrators will face in their experience like the user will left the company and after some days he joins back. when we create a new user name for that person even though we see the old name in SharePoint after the many successful imports.

Solution: SharePoint doesn't understand this change automatically. We need to make it understand by giving instruction via STSADM command

When user's Account Name (or Login Name: Domain\User) renamed in Active Directory, you have to use stsadm -o migrateuser command to associate the new AD account with an existing SharePoint profile.

STSADM:
stsadm -o migrateuser -oldlogin EU\susanapi -newlogin EU\suzanapi –ignoresidhistory

Power shell :
Move-SPUser –Identity "DOMAIN\OldUserName" –NewAlias "Domain\NewUserName"

Add, edit, or delete custom properties in SharePoint Server 2013 user profiles



Add, edit, or delete custom properties in SharePoint Server 2013 user profiles
 

The Manage Profile Service page of a User Profile service application in SharePoint Server 2013 is a central location for managing available user profile properties and creating new properties. For more information, see Overview of the User Profile service application in SharePoint Server 2013.

You can supplement default user profile properties with additional properties to track key information that is not otherwise available. Key business needs might encourage you to create new properties that associate users with important business processes. For example, a sales department can create a specific sales role property to share with a particular audience or audiences. Custom user profile properties can be edited to better suit business needs or they can be deleted when no longer needed.

The Manage Profile Service page cannot be accessed until an instance of a User Profile service application exists. You can use the SharePoint Central Administration website to create and manage User Profile service applications and other service applications for non-hosted environments. (For hosted environments, you do this on the Tenant Administrator page.) You can delegate administration of a User Profile service application to someone who does not have permissions to manage other services or settings contained in Central Administration. For more information, see Delegate administration of User Profile service applications in SharePoint Server 2013

User profile service application is missing to import AD groups



User profile service application is missing to import AD groups

Issue: I configured the User Profile Service and I did a full synchronization. Everything works fine.

I used FIM tool miisclient.exe to view results. I find that the number of results in this tool is different from result as in CA "Number of User profiles”. In fact, with CA I can't found profile for groups AD. Furthermore, wit miisclient tool I can see users and groups from AD.

Cause: Probably the groups are being imported (these are required by things such as audiences). They will not be displayed however in manage user profiles (or anywhere else), this is by design. Try creating an audience based on group membership and compiling it, this will prove if the groups are imported or not.

Solution: You can still check Active directory groups in miisclient tool at, for SharePoint 2013 it is 15.0 instead of 14.0

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Office Servers\14.0\Synchronization Service\UIShell\miisclient.exe

1.    Run the MIISclient.exe as Administrator

 0109

2.    Click on the Management Agents button on the top menu bar
3.    Right-click on “Active Directory Connector” and choose Run from the context menu.

 0110
4.    Highlight “Full Import Full Sync” and choose OK.
 0111

5.    The State will change to Running. The bottom half the screen will give information on any changes that it makes during the run as well as any errors encountered.

 0112

Here you would be able to see the number of groups imported

No exact match was found People Picker error message



No exact match was found People Picker error message

Issue: Assume that you configure a forest trust between two Active Directory forests and that the Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) is not enabled for Net Bios resolution. In this situation, People Picker in a Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 site works fine for users in the local forest. However, for users in any domain in the trusted forest, People Picker does not work.

Additionally, People Picker finds the user account and seems to resolve it. However, when user clicks OK to post back to the site, the user receives the following error message:
No exact match was found. Click the items that did not resolve for more options

Cause: This issue occurs because, when you click OK, People Picker makes a NetBIOS call to try to resolve the domain name. Because the customer does not have WINS set up, a Net Bios broadcast occurs. However, the broadcast cannot find the trusted domains because broadcasts are not enabled outside the subnet

Solution: Please check the below link from MS
