  • Hi

    We understand that you need to add "Display Name" to nested users in NTFS reports. There are a number of steps required.

    1) Firstly the customer will need to run an AD discovery in addition to the NTFS discovery.
    2) Start Report Manager.
    3) Drag the report that you wish to change from the "Report Library" to the "My Reports" area. For example "Folder Permissions with Membership".
    4) Edit the report. A new dialog will appear ("Edit report definition").
    5) Select the "Parameters" tab.
    6) Locate and select the parameter "Expand Nested Groups (account Member)". Click "Edit".
    7) A new dialog will appear ("Edit Parameter"). In the lower-right corner you will see a button "Add Fields". Click this.
    8) A new dialog will appear ("Add additional fields to nested group members"). On the left-hand side expand "Domain User" and select "Display Name". Click "Add". Then click "OK".
    9) Click OK on the "Edit Parameter" dialog.
    10) Click OK on the "Edit report definition dialog.
    11) Run the report.
