Explanation
To sync specific departments (users) from on-premises Active Directory to Microsoft Entra ID while excluding others, use Microsoft Entra Connect Sync filtering. Specifically, OU-based filtering (selecting only the OUs containing the desired departments) or attribute-based filtering (e.g., using a custom attribute to include/exclude) are the most effective methods. Key Methods for Filtering: * OU Filtering: During configuration, deselect the OU containing the department you do not want to sync. [Will not work here] *-> Attribute Filtering: Configure Entra Connect to only sync users where a specific attribute (e.g., department or a custom extension attribute) matches a required value. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/hybrid/connect/how-to-connect-sync-configure-
