Engaged Sweeper II

It would make it extremely useful to get the canonical name of the asset from Active Directory into the database/system for reporting purposes (currently there is only a OU database column which is in the format OU=subfolderA,OU=computers,DC=domain,DC=test). The canonical name is helpful as it's basically the reverse of an OU field but in a more human readable format with forward slashes e.g.

domain.test/computers/subfolder

Which when you sort in a database will sort in the correct computer structure (e.g. by parent folder). When you sort on the OU it will not sort in the same fashion e.g.

domain.test/computers/subfoldera
domain.test/computers/subfolderb
domain.test/computers/subfoldera/nextsubfolder
domain.test/computers/subfolderb/nextsubfolder

VS

OU=nextsubfolder,OU=subfolderA,OU=computers,DC=domain,DC=test
OU=nextsubfolder,OU=subfolderB,OU=computers,DC=domain,DC=test
OU=subfolderA,OU=computers,DC=domain,DC=test
OU=subfolderB,OU=computers,DC=domain,DC=test

Can someone at Lansweeper please bring through this value for both Users and Computers via the Active Directory sync?
