@Sudhir Ramamoorthy Thanks for reaching out. Seems you need to sync the employee number attribute to Azure AD.

Here are the steps which you need to follow :

1) Open the Azure AD Connect wizard, choose Tasks, and then choose Customize synchronization options.

2) Sign in as an Azure AD Global Administrator.

3) On the Optional Features page, select Directory extension attribute sync.

4) Select the Employee Number attribute from the list and click on Configure:

5) Complete the Wizard and run a Full Sync.

Hi @VipulSparsh-MSFT ,
is this action additiv to the existing sync, or is it necessary to mark all already synched attributes?
