I was recently given the fairly hellish task of making sure that the managers our users sort under matches what’s been set in D365 F&O, which got me thinking: Do others move OUs etc in AD around in order to reflect changes in the organizations and making them match?

So far I’ve mostly stuck to dealing with AD organized by a Location - Department - Job Function kind of way, which has served me pretty well since we don’t have a lot of users (only about 200ish, which is tiny compared to those of you than handle 5000+). But I’m interested in hearing how you’ve chosen to organize things, and how/if you keep your AD more in tune with whatever shenanigans the execs come up with in terms of departments etc.
