Directory overview

TIM Enterprise is designed upon an object-based directory that places no limits on its hierarchical width or depth. This approach permits the integration of multiple sites within one centralised system, where every user can be grouped into folders, sites, cost centres and divisions, allowing you to create an exact replica of your company's internal structure.

Every system object of the Directory has an explicit, defined relationship with its peers and an entire tree of related objects can be defined, with no width or depth limits of the branches.

To facilitate the configuration and management of large systems, TIM Enterprise supports directory synchronisation with third-party applications such as Active Directory and Cisco AXL.

Accessing the Directory

To access the Directory, click on the Directory tab from the main menu tab, as shown below:

If you are logged in as a standard web user whose access is restricted to a specific site or group, only the information related to that site or group will be displayed in the Directory. For administrative privileges, contact your system maintainer.

Adding objects to the Directory

To add objects to the Directory, click on the New object tab, as shown below:

A new window will appear, displaying all available objects, grouped in two categories: Organisation units and Other objects. For a detailed description of each object type, refer to the relevant section.
