About this resource
This 5-step demo shows how to set a directory anchor in LemonadeLXP. From the admin home, open Enrollment and search for the user you want as the anchor root—they must already have a LemonadeLXP account. Open their details, scroll down to find the Directory Anchor switch, turn it on, and save. After the next nightly run, everyone who reports up to that person will be synced from Active Directory. You can set multiple anchors. If no anchors are set, the entire directory syncs as one tree.
