Working with Nested Organizational Units

2. Select View > Advanced features (Enabled Advanced features).
3. Navigate to the Organizational Unit where the desktops will be placed.
4. Right-click and select Properties.
5. Click the Attribute editor and select distinguishedName.
6. Click View.
7. Enter the distinguished name information in the Computer OU field on the Desktop Assignment page.
   Only the OU= part of the string is required. The DC= part is optional.
