If you use the Ctrl+N keybinding while selecting any object in the tree, you'll open the Object Creator:
This page allows you to create the following types of objects:
- OrganizationalUnit
- Container
- User
- Group
- Computer
These objects will be created with the minimum set of attributes, and you'll have to change the attributes afterwards if needed. For reference, these are the templates that godap uses to create objects:
When creating User objects, for example, they will be disabled at first, and you might want to enable them by using Ctrl+A to change their userAccountControl flags. User/computer accounts will also not have a password set after creation, so you might want to add one with Ctrl+P.
This page also offers a feature to set the Entry TTL of an object upon creation. This value is AD-specific, and setting it to any non-negative value will make the object a Dynamic Object and set its EntryTTL to the specified value in seconds. After that amount of seconds, the object will be completely removed from AD (note that it may take a few minutes after the TTL for the cleanup routine to run).

To delete an object simply select it in the tree and confirm the deletion:
To change the password of a principal, simply select it and hit Ctrl+P:
Note that TLS (either via LDAPS or StartTLS) is usually required to change a principal's password. Check the 0. General section for guidance on how to connect using LDAPS or upgrade an existing connection with StartTLS.
After selecting an object, hit Ctrl+A to change its' userAccountControl attribute interactively. In AD, the userAccountControl governs parameters related to the account, such as whether it's disabled, whether a password is required, if the account is trusted for delegation, etc.
