Active Directory syncing with display name
Allow the syncing of Display Name with in the active directory. This way when selecting a user to assign a task they don't have to know their login name.
For example if my login name was John. Yet there are more than one person named John within the directory. If you use display name the user will see John Smith.
By allowing this I will not have to create special lookup lists or rename all the user accounts.
It is not possible to use the Display Name as username in DocuWare, as it is not unique.
The User Synchronization App synchronizes also the first and lastname of the users from Active Directory.
We will take a look at the built-in select list of users, to include the first and lastname.

if you use LDAP instead of windows syncing (specifying the ad server as the ldap source) you can chose the object to use as the name. you can also pull multiple domains this way, and have different email options.
