I am looking for a way to populate the Description field in Lansweeper with the Description field for computers in active directory. I was hoping that it could be part of the scanning process so i would not have to change it in both places.
Solved! Go to Solution.

It should work if you have AD scanning already setup, it works in our environment without issues.
