LDAP Transform: Division Field vs. Department field in Active Directory

[Heather White]

Good afternoon Community!

        I've got a question regarding LDAP Transform maps.   We have Windows servers 2008, 2012 and 2014.     I'm being advised by our admins here that the division field is no longer available in the 2012 version(we are not sure if the division field is available in the 2014 version).  

Is there a way to set up the LDAP transform to recognize both "division" and "department", as we have machines running multiple versions?

Thanks,

Heather

Do you want to map division & department to the same field in SN or different fields? Thinking the same field, you can use a field map script (versus transform map script) that will use division if it's not empty or use department.

Hi Michael,

      Yes, we want both division and department to map to our location field.   If we are using a transform map, can this be used in conjunction with the field map script?

Thanks!

If it's the same field, you can just setup 2 field mappings:

one for division that maps to location

one for department that maps to location

no script is needed unless there is some limitations you want.

Hi Michael,

      I was not able to set up 2 fields mapping to in our current table transform map, it gave me an error because there was already a map set up for location.   Where do I set up this mapping?

Thanks,

Heather
