Computer group policy based on organizational onits

I was wondering about if i have a computers in a company that many users from diffrent OU are using.
The computers are always on the same place but users from Marketing, Sales and Managers might all need to log in to this computer but i want to apply different computer group policy on that computer based on what OU is logged in.I know normally i would keep the computer OU under the OU of for example Marketing OU if i would know exacly only Marketing OU users would use that computer but i need to be able to apply different computer policy based on what OU are logged in.

You cannot apply different computer settings depending on who will log on your PC. However, you can apply different user settings with loopback processing and different user GPOs where you can add as scope the different groups you have (Marketing, Sales ...)

Hi,
As Mr X said, you could apply the different "User-Config" based on who login to that specific computer using the Loopback Policy Processing. Here are some articles about Loopback Policy, you could take a look and use for reference:
