    Hi
    I try to set the manager attribute of a user account.
    In my example the user account itself has the sAMAccountName of its manager stored in a string formatted attribute, lets say "adManagerAccount", in the metaverse.
    Now I try to flow the attribute out to AD using a custom expression:
    Source: /Person[accountName=adManagerAccount]
    Destination: manager

    if a given object has "TomTaler" as accountName and the object in question has "TomTaler" in its adManagerAccount value in the metaverse then
    in my understanding, /Person[accountName=] should result in a reference to the object with the value of "TomTaler" as accountName.

    I also tried to hard-code the name into the source statement without success:
    Source: /Person[accountName='tomTaler']


    How should the source look like that it can be used as reference value?

    I moved the thread to the corrct location

    Any help is appreciated.
