Custom Active Directory field mappings 2007

[TimOz]

I want to map AD fields to specific Enterprise custom fields for resources.
This would simplify the population and maintenance of cost codes, locations,
etc.

The only reference I have found to this is in the "Microsoft Office Project
Server 2007 Administration Overview" presentation by Adrian Jenkins
(http://www.projectservertips.com/Microsoft Project 2007 Server
Administration Overview.ppt).

It includes tantalising references to customisable metadata updates and
custom field mappings via AD sync.

Can anyone can point to me to the relevant documentation, or give a few more
hints on how to achieve this?

Waiting with baited breath…

You can achieve this relatively easily by developing a custom event that
fires when the AD sync is initiated.

You will definately need someone with Dev skills (preferably c#), but you
could probably do it with VB. (see the SDK for further info)

I suggest you post this question on the Dev forum. I'd be surprised if no
one has an example.

Thanks for the hint and redirection.
