Manage users
Applies To: Dynamics CRM 2013
How you manage users depends on the version of Microsoft Dynamics CRM that you have.

With Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 (on-premises), you can add users to your organization one at a time, or you can add multiple users at the same time by using the Add Users wizard.
Make sure you have the System Administrator security role or equivalent permissions in Microsoft Dynamics CRM.

When you create a new user or update an existing user in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 (on-premises), some fields in the CRM user records, such as the name and phone number, are populated with the information obtained from Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS). The synchronization between Active Directory user accounts and the CRM user records is not automatic. If you change user fields in Active Directory, the information isn’t propagated to CRM until you refresh the user records in CRM.
The following table shows the fields that are populated on the CRM user form (user record) from Active Directory user account:
