Im trying to do an invoke command inside a function, but having difficulty getting defined variables to pass through.
function Set-RemoteLocalAdmin {
[CmdletBinding()]
param (
[Parameter(Mandatory)]
[string]$ComputerName,
[String] $UserId
)
$sb = {
param($userid)
add-LocalGroupMember -Group "Administrators" -Member "$UserId"}
Invoke-Command -ComputerName $ComputerName -Scriptblock $sb -argumentlist $userid
}
Errors:

enter code hereFind my script and the error messages I'm getting on some of get-distribution group attributes.
The attributes are:
managedby
memberjoinrestriction
memberdepartrestriction
requiresenderauthenticationenabled
When i exclude the the above attributes, the scripts returns well without error.
Assist me to understand where i'm doing it wrong.
The script: The script is supposed to bulk export information for distribution groups
$Groups = Get-DistributionGroup –ResultSize Unlimited
$Groups | ForEach-Object {
$group = $_.Name
$primarySMTPAddress = $_.PrimarySMTPAddress
$managedby = $._ManagedBy
$memberjoinrestriction = $._MemberJoinRestriction
$memberdepartrestriction = $._MemberDepartRestriction
$requiresenderauthenticationenabled = $._RequireSenderAuthenticationEnabled
Get-DistributionGroupMember $group | ForEach-Object {
New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property #{
Group = $group
GroupPrimarySMTPAddress = $primarySMTPAddress
Member = $_.Name
ManagedBy = $managedby
MemberJoinRestriction = $memberjoinrestriction
MemberDepartRestriction = $memberdepartrestriction
RequireSenderAuthenticationEnabled = $requiresenderauthenticationenabled
EmailAddress = $_.PrimarySMTPAddress
}}} | Export-CSV "C:\DistributionGroupinfov1.csv" -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8```
The error message is

I am trying to execute a PS1 file that uses the new PS 5.1 cmdlet Remove-LocalUser and am running into some issues. Below is the code block that I am running which will check for any local accounts in the Administrator group and then delete them if they are not in the $IgnoreList:
$ErrorActionPreference="SilentlyContinue"
Stop-Transcript | out-null
$ErrorActionPreference = "Continue"
Start-Transcript -path C:\BigFix\AdminAccounts\output.txt -append
$users = Get-WmiObject win32_groupuser | Where-Object { $_.GroupComponent -match ‘administrators’ } | ForEach-Object {[wmi]$_.PartComponent }
$IgnoreList = "SOMEACCOUNTNAME"
#Write-host $users.name
:OuterLoop
foreach ($user in $users) {
foreach ($account in $IgnoreList) {
if ($user.name -like "$account") {
continue OuterLoop
}
}
Remove-LocalUser -Name $user.Name
}
Stop-Transcript
This script runs fine on the target machine if I am logged in to a local admin account but will not run when deployed through our End Point management console where it runs as the system account.
The machine in question is running the following version of PS:

My Script contains

foreach ($letter in $letterArray)

Move the script to another(deeper) folder and try again? You can also try
