Hi,
we use AD fine grained password policy - applied to a group of users.
See: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/identity/ad-ds/get-started/adac/introduction-to-act...
Querying tblADusers.PasswordExpirationDate, we see that the fine grained password policy is not taken into account.
The value in tblADusers always seems to respect only the default password policy, but not the override settings of fine grained password policies.
Calling the Powershell command
Get-ADUser -Identity ID_GOES_HERE –Properties "msDS-UserPasswordExpiryTimeComputed"
shows a different PasswordExpirationDate for the AD user as the Lansweeper table tblADusers contains.
How to get the correct value into the Lansweeper table?

Being currently in contact with support, it seems that the problem originates from using Fine-Grained Password Policies (FGPP) in conjunction with the type of querying the password expiration information used by LanSweeper.
I found this hint on the web (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/110116/active-directory):
When using "net user samAccountName /domain", the value returned by "Password expires" doesn’t take in consideration the fine grained policies.
It only shows the domain password policy.
This might explain, why LanSweeper currently shows a wrong expiry information, when FGPP is not taken into account.

I don't see how this answers my question.
I know that the PasswordExpirationDate is imported, but my question is, why is the value wrong?
