Hi,

Currently my ActiveSync Form assigns AD groups based on the Department the employee belongs to, as shown below.  I am wondering instead of having to hard code this either in the Form or Rule if it would be efficient to obtain this info from a table using a custom java calss.  Can someone please clarify if this is a right approach or do you see any pitfall in this approach?

For instance,

  <Field name='accounts[AW Domain].groups'>
    <Expansion>
      <switch>
          <ref>activeSync.dept</ref>
          <case>
            <s>IT</s>
            <List>
              <String>Group 1</String>
              <String>Group 2</String>
            </List>
          </case>
          <case>
            <s>ENGG</s>
            <List>
              <String>Group 3</String>
              <String>Group 4</String>
            </List>
          </case>
          <case default='true'>
            <List>
              <String>Group 5</String>
            </List>
          </case>
        </switch>
    </Expansion>
  </Field>

Thanks!

Hi Adi,

Thanks so much for your valuable response!

Could you please give me some idea about as to how to maintain the group info in a Config object?  Could we maintain all the group info of all the departments in a single Config object or should we maintain separate objects for each department?  If separate objects, I think I know how to retrieve the group info but if they all can be in a single object, how would I retrieve the information for a specific department during run time?  Please let me know when you find time.

Thanks!
