To configure additional object type properties, in Object
types, click an available object type, click Edit, and
then do any of the following:
If there is more than one object type and you want to configure
an anchor attribute for each object type, select theDefine
anchor attribute for this object type check box, and then, in

object type. If the template input file contains a hierarchical
distinguished name attribute, select the Use distinguished name
as anchor attribute check box.
To require that an attribute be present in all synchronizations
of the selected object, in Select mandatory attributes, in
Available attributes, click the attribute that you want to
require, and then click the Add button to the left of

have attributes, click Remove.

synchronizations of the selected object, in Select mandatory
attributes, in Available attributes, click the attribute
you want to require, and then click the Add button to the
left of May have attributes. To remove an attribute from
