SUMMARY

When you create a user, there is an option to include the user in Directory Synchronization (Dir-Sync). If the user is included in Dir-Sync, but the requirement to keep the user in the Postoffice Address List but remove the user from Dir-Sync is needed, you can Modify the user; select N to not include the user in Dir-Sync. This will create a Delete transaction in the REQTRANS.GLB that will delete the user from all Requestors participating in Dir-Sync.

MORE INFORMATION

An alternative method is to use Import. Use a text editor to create a file with the following format:
   D in Col 1   Alias name in  3 - 33 ,  in col 34 address
   type:network/po/username
				
For example:
   D  User1 alias                  PCM:NET1/PO1/USER1
				
Use the following command to import the file into a Requestor (preferably the Dir-Sync server):
   Import Admin -ppassword   -E  -ffilename.txt  -ddrive
				
The deletion will be sent to all the participating Requestors for deletion from their .USR files without effecting the address in the Postoffice Address List.
