So... now that you mention it. ;) I'm knee deep in the first real-world task of creating a powershell script. I will be happy to accept a nudge in the right direction (or a cluex4, if I'm missing the obvious)
The script imports user data from a csv; and uses that data to create their username and email address. Then it checks if the username / email is in use; gives an error if it does, creates the user or mailbox if it doesn't. It also updates attributes, one being the employee number. I need to export the newly created usernames, emails, and the employee number. I've created an array that adds each new user, and then is exported to a csv. Everything works, except the "employeenumber", which is what HR is using as the primary key. The array is $createdusers +@() and then: $createdusers += $Newuser $createdusers|select displayname,name,email,employeenumber |export-csv "C:\temp\scripts\tryagain.csv" Any ideas to get the employeenumber to export? The other thing is this pulls the email, even if the user doesn't get a mailbox. Thanks all.
