Hello,

You can create a rule running a custom script (see the JavaScript API wiki page : http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/JavaScript_API). This script runs on the server and you can dynamically create a user or a space.
Note that Alfresco can automatically create a Home folder for each new user, with adequate permissions.

Is it possible to create subspace in the userhome automaticaly
And give an other user, say, a manager, the rights to add content.

|-Users Home
—|-Employee1
——|-Documents
—|-Employee2
——|-Documents

In this case the manager would be able to add content to the Documents spaces form both employees, without setting rules manually.
