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 Adjustment**section, you **don’t**need 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.

If you decided to use default connection (see **Virto SharePoint Active Directory self Service Web Part Settings**section), fill out domain name, account name and password fields and click “Save”. These data will be used for connection to AD information.
