Can I Use a Variable for -WhatIf in Set-ADUser?

Another approach could be setting a variable for -WhatIf itself, like `Set-ADuser $Actions -WhatIf:$WhatIfPreference`. This way, you streamline it a bit depending on your preferences.

If you're planning to track changes in AD, using something like `ShouldProcess` can be beneficial. Just remember that if you're relying on it, some sequential commands might not execute if you're in -WhatIf mode, since those changes won't apply until you're ready to go!

The -WhatIf switch is great for testing what would happen without making any actual changes. Just a heads up, it’s essential to remember that sometimes it might not function as expected, and you could still end up making changes, so use it carefully!

It looks like you might want to implement a try/catch structure as well. This will allow your commands to attempt execution, catch any errors, and perform a final action regardless of success. However, from what you mentioned, if you're looking for an audit mode with -WhatIf, you're on the right track!

You can definitely work with conditionals! Since $DoWork is a boolean, you could use something like `Set-ADUser $Actions -WhatIf:(-not $DoWork)`. This way, if $DoWork is true, it runs normally; if false, it shows what would have happened without actually applying changes.
