Self Service privileges of ADSelfService Plus aim at reducing administrator workload and also improve employee efficiency. With options to Reset password, Unlock Account, Change Password and Personal Information Update, employees no longer have to depend on someone to get these tasks effected. However, not all users in a domain would need to be given similar self service permissions/restrictions. This is when the OU based Self Service Policy Configuration option comes handy.
Configuring policies for users' self service options might often be a puzzle for Active Directory administrators. Using the Policy Configuration options of ADSelfService Plus, administrators can now associate users in selective OUs with specific self service permissions. Individual OUs can now be associated with specific policy configurations within seconds. Using the Policy Configuration wizard, you can define Secret Question & Answer settings like the number of questions, the character length of answers, user defined questions,etc. Administrators can also grant permissions for users of specific OUs, to define their own secret questions.
OU based Policy Configuration for Self Service options can easily be done with ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus.

As an administrator, you can configure the Reset Password options for users in a domain. There are two ways by which the password can be reset.

Likewise, you can configure the Account Lockout options for users in the domain. Same as the Reset Password feature, there are two options to unlock user accounts viz, grant the self unlock account option or set an automatic account unlock. With the automatic account unlock, the ADSelfService Plus application checks for Locked out accounts on a routine basis and if this option is enabled then automatically unlocks the locked out user accounts.
