Enterprise directorySharePoint 2013
You control :
Employee directory with SharePoint 2013
which fields should be editable by the user
which fields are synchronized from your AD
visibility on each profile property
PROS CONS
Powerfull search engine Expensive if you are not planning on having also an intranet on SharePoint ($)
Synchronyzed with AD Your Active Directory is probably not clean enough at
the moment !
Profiles open the possibilities for personalization of your
intranet
If done wrong, it can bring more pain than gain.

CONSIDERATIONS
Gouvernance
Once every 2 month, a SharePoint admin has to make a check on all the photos, looking for inapropriate content
Organization Chart
No translation on the Title
Solutions :
• Have biligual title ; (Title EN / Titre FR)
• The user puts his title in his langage

Issues
Multiple geographic location
Data from Multiple Directory
MySite already used and branded
Title FR and office only available in eDirectory
Problem:
SharePoint cannot synchronize from 2 different Directory provider (AD + eDirectory)
Solution
Synchronization on AD
External content type to complete the missing informations in the user profile

CONSIDERATIONS
Localization
Mapping of the office name from the address of the user
Offices and rooms searchable
When you search in the directory
• you see the office name of the user (in the good language)
• you also find offices related to your search
A click on the office presents the office information
Needed to be the same as their old system (Oracle) that was already working correctly
« If it aint broken, don’t fix it »
