Explanation:
< Job title property: # User2 only
Usage location property: # User2 and User3 only
According to the Microsoft SC-300: Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator Study Guide and Microsoft Learn documentation on Azure Active Directory user management, the ability to modify user attributes such as Job title and Usage location depends on whether the user is:
* Directory-synced (from on-premises Active Directory), or
* Cloud-only (created directly in Azure AD), or
* Guest (external B2B user)
Here's the explanation for each scenario based on the user table provided:
Name
Type
Directory Synced
User1
Member
Yes
User2
Member
No
User3
Guest
No
* The Job title attribute is read-only for users synchronized from on-premises Active Directory.For directory-synced users like User1, the attribute must be managed in on-premises AD and synchronized via Azure AD Connect.
* For cloud-only users (like User2) and guest users (like User3), the attribute can be modified in Azure AD.However, Microsoft restricts certain profile fields, including Job title, for guest users unless they are given specific permissions.
# Therefore, only User2 (a cloud-only member) can have the Job title property configured directly in Azure AD.
* The Usage location property determines licensing restrictions (for example, Microsoft 365 services available by country).
* This property is editable for cloud-only users (User2) and guest users (User3).
* For directory-synced users (User1), the value is controlled from on-premises AD, and cannot be modified in Azure AD.
# Therefore, User2 and User3 can have the Usage location property configured in Azure AD.
* Job title property: User2 only
* Usage location property: User2 and User3 only
Reference (Microsoft Official Documentation Extracts):
"For synchronized users, attribute values such as Job title and Department are managed in the on-premises Active Directory and cannot be edited in Azure AD."
"Usage location must be specified in Azure AD for cloud-only and guest users to assign licenses correctly."
