# User-Creation-Bulk.ps1

NOTE: This script is not even close to ready for prime time.

Automates the bulk creation of Active Directory user accounts with a graphical user interface (GUI). Collects user information, validates input, generates a random password, creates the AD user, configures mailbox, group memberships, employee ID, and organisational structure. Supports both single and bulk user creation (bulk via button for new hire sheet import).

1. Loads required modules (Active Directory, Exchange Online Management).
2. Presents a Windows Forms GUI for user input (first name, last name, employee ID, manager, mirror user, job title, department).
3. Validates all fields before allowing user creation.
4. Generates a random password using an external password generator script.
5. Creates the AD user with all required attributes and home directory.
6. Copies group memberships from a specified mirror user.
7. Enables an Exchange Online mailbox for the new user.
8. Ensures membership in required base groups and removes from non-standard signature groups.
9. Displays the new credentials in a pop-up and copies the password to clipboard.
10. Includes buttons to clear fields and to bulk create users from a new hire sheet (Excel import logic placeholder).
