Additional Microsoft Entra ID Fields Available to Synchronize into OnePlan

The fields in Microsoft Entra ID that are readily available to be brought into OnePlan are:

Display Name Mail Company Name Employee Name
Given Name Surname Department Job Title
Employee Id Employee Hire Date (Date) Account Enabled (YesNo) Is Resource Account
City State Street Address Postal Code
Country Manager Mobile Phone Hire Date (Date)
User Type (Dropdown) User Principal Name Inactive (YesNo) Office Location
Mail Nickname Preferred Language Sign in Sessions Valid From Date Time (Date) Employee Leave Date Time (Date)
Created Date Time (Date) Fax Number Age Group (Dropdown)  

An additional step to create a corresponding field within the OnePlan Resource Center is necessary to map to the available fields in Microsoft Entra ID. This can be done within the OnePlan Configuration page > Fields > Resources.

Mapping to OnePlan’s Inactive Field

When mapping to OnePlan’s Inactive field, please map this to the Microsoft Entra ID Inactive field.

Default Microsoft Entra fields and On Premises Extension Attributes Supported

This integration currently supports the default fields Microsoft Entra fields (listed above), as well as on-premises extension attributes. 

On Premises Extension Attributes

On-premises extension attributes are synchronized from an on-premises Active Directory to Microsoft Entra. These extensions are also known as Exchange custom attributes 1-15 and can be accessed from the Microsoft 365 Exchange Admin UI as mailbox properties. 

These attributes may be accessed from the onPremisesExtensionAttibutes property of a user's profile. To see the available extensions within your tenant, please navigate to Microsoft Graph Explorer. This can only be done for users who have the correct level of access within their Microsoft Tenant Organization. 

If the extension attributes are brought into Microsoft Entra from Active Directory, the attributes will be read only. However, cloud-only users can set these attributes during creation and updates. 

Please do not store sensitive or personally identifiable information within the extension attributes. 

Defaults when fields aren't mapped

  • Resources created from Entra are created as Non-Generic users (requiring an email), whose resource type is - Work.
  • Global Permissions (Enterprise Security Groups) of all newly created resources are set to the OnePlan groups default Enterprise Security Group. 
  • All resources are Active by default (unless the Inactive field is mapped).
  • All resources are NOT Timesheet Administrators.
