Question

This should be something simple, I have read a lot about the organization browser webpart, its a nice silverlight app that shows the hierarchy of people on the company, however I have no idea where you can edit/know the hierarchy, who is boss of who? where can I edit that?

What about if the users are coming from active directory? I suppose the first time it synchronizes there is no info at all about hierarchies.

Thanks

Answer 1

The org Browser pulls information from the User Profile store which in turn syncs with Active Directory.

You can also use this web part in your portal:
