Hey, thanks for your answer.
The usage is simply giving employees local admin permissions on a computer for a limited time when they need it.
I'm not sure what you mean by 'action', I choose 'Local user group membership' under 'profile' when creating the policy.
Sometimes it works just perfect, and the user is added the local 'Administrators' group and sometimes nothing happens (even after doing a sync)

It could help you with this and would be a lot easier for you as an IT administrator to maintain.
