Storing multiple manager relationships in the directory

[Ravi Sabharanjak]

Hello,

My firm would like to setup an LDAP directory that can be used by internal
applications to look up information on users. The directory would be
updated on a schedule using information from the HR database. We have
multiple reporting relationships within the organization for some people
(dotted line reporting relationships), in addition to their primary
manager. Is there schema available that will accomodate such multiple
reporting relationships?

Thanks,
-Ravi

The manager attribute of RFC 1274 is multivalued by definition. If you
want a separate attribute for the single direct report manager, you can
either use another distinguished name attribute, like secretary for
inetOrgPerson objects, or add your own as an attribute in a custom
object class.
