Sorry for the OT, just trying to find out how others are doing this:

We're having some growing pains. Our process for new hires/terminations
is not working very well. We have an HR package that maintains all user
demographics and is entered when the employee is hired. Then they come
to us to create an account for them, which has no demographic
information. When the employee is terminated, we sometimes aren't even
notified so the accounts aren't removed in a timely manner. Then we add
them to a web based phonebook, so that staff are able to locate each
other. Obviously we're entering the same data more than once.

I'd like to see all demographic information in AD, but am unsure if I
should pull it from the HR package or enter it into AD and then pull it
into the HR package. How are you doing the imports/exports? It'd be
helpful to have this info in AD. I'd also like to find out what
processes you guys are doing to automate or streamline account
creation/removal when employees are hired/terminated and ensure that
none are missed.

Thanks for any info you're willing to share.
