You assign or remove an employee from an organizational unit by setting that unit’s field on their profile. Each person belongs to one value of a unit at a time, so selecting a new one automatically removes them from their previous one. Organizational units are managed in OneDirectory and aren’t synced from Microsoft 365.
Assign or remove a person
In your live directory, click Edit in Console in the top bar, next to your profile picture.
In the Directory Console sidebar, select People.
Click the employee’s row. A panel opens on the right, on the Profile Details tab.
Click the Value next to the organizational unit field (for example, Division).
Select a new value to move them there, or clear the field to remove them.
Click the green check to save the change, or the red X to discard it.
Note: The organizational unit must already exist before you can assign people to it. The Edit in Console button is available to Administrators and Directory Editors. |
