Group Membership Removal policies automate the removal of deprovisioned user accounts from groups. You can configure such policies to remove user accounts from all groups, with optional exceptions.
When configuring a Group Membership Removal policy, you can configure policy rules separately for security groups and mail-enabled groups in the New Deprovisioning Policy Object Wizard.
For a detailed description of this policy, see Concept: Group Membership Removal in the Active Roles Feature Guide.
You can configure a new Group Membership Removal policy with the Active Roles Console.
To configure a Group Membership Removal policy

On the Policy to Configure page, select Group Membership Removal, then click Next.

The policy described in this scenario, removes the deprovisioned users from all groups, both security and distribution.
To implement this scenario, you must perform the following actions:

Apply the Policy Object to a domain, OU, or Managed Unit.
As a result, when deprovisioning a user account, Active Roles removes the user account from all groups.
