Accessing additional values in eGuide

Novell Cool Solutions: Question & Answer

Posted: 9 Nov 2005

Q:
I want eGuide users to be able search for people by departments using the corresponding meaningful text - for example, click on the department drop-down field and choose "Information Services" instead of having to choose the actual value held in eDirectory. Is there any way to do this in eGuide?

A:
eGuide is only able to work with attributes in the directory. You will need to add the descriptions of the departments there if you want them to be viewable through eGuide.
