Fields Management

First of all administrator has to add all the required fields which will be used in fieldsets. Go to “Settings – Site Settings”.

Note: if you already adjusted fields and fieldsets as described in Active Directory User Service Adjustmentsection, you don’tneed to manage fields and fieldsets one more time. These settings are the same for both web parts. Just move to SharePoint Active Directory Self Service Web Part Settings.

Then find the link “Virto SharePoint Active Directory Service Settings” and follow it.
