How to generate the nested user and group members reports?

Objective: To view the list of all users and groups belonging to a group, including the ones belonging to the groups nested within the specified group.

Solution: Use ADManager Plus' Group Members and Detailed Group Members reports to view the members belonging to a group, including the members of the groups nested within the first group.

Using Group Members report

2. Go to Group Reports. Under Member-based reports, click the Group Members report.
3. In the Group Members report page, select the necessary domain.
4. Select the groups whose members (users) you wish to view. Do not select the Exclude Nested Groups option as our objective is to also view all users who arealso nested within the specified groups(s).
