  Timo,

  We don't currently have a variable for logged on user in Inventory, creating a script for that would be pretty complicated. If you give me some time to work on that and see if i can get AD access to test it i'll get back to you when i can.

  Do your users log into computers locally or do they RDP? The current logged on user setting is Powershell is different for a local user as apposed to a RDP user.

  Timo, 

  Let me know if this works. I don't have access currently to test it. All you need to do is paste the following into the Command field of a new tool, Name it whatever you like and change the Shell option to Leave Shell Open.

  Command:

  $user = (Get-WmiObject -ComputerName $(Computer:TARGETHOSTNAME) -Class win32_computersystem).username.split("\")[1]

  IF((Get-ADUser -Properties "LockedOut" -Identity $user).lockedout -eq $true){
  Unlock-ADAccount -Identity $user
  Echo "$user was locked"
  }Else{
  Echo "$user is Not Locked"
  }

   

   Note: This requires that you have Remote Server Administration Tools installed on the same machine that is running PDQ Inventory.

  Here is a script that should work for both local logged in accounts and RDP accounts.

  Command:

  $ProcessList = Get-WmiObject -ComputerName $(Computer:TARGETHOSTNAME) win32_process -Filter "Name = 'explorer.exe'"
  $users = @()
  ForEach ($process in $ProcessList) {
    $users += ($process.GetOwner()).User
  }
  
  Foreach($user in $users){
  IF((Get-ADUser -Properties "LockedOut" -Identity $user).lockedout -eq $true){
  Unlock-ADAccount -Identity $user
  Echo "Accoount Locked"
  }Else{
  Echo "Account is Not Locked"
  }
  }
