I have an on-premise Exchange 2010 server and I'm using DirSync to sync info between my AD and O365. I am nearly done migrating all of my 160 mailboxes up to O365 and for the first time, I just had the need to create a new (mail enabled) user. I'm now not sure how I should create new users. Do I create it in my local AD and then run DirSync and then assign a license to it? Do I create it directly in the O365 console and then DirSync it back to my AD?
Not sure what the correct procedure is for this. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
