Q: How do the signatures get into the emails of the employees?
A: After synchronisation, your Microsoft 365 employees are available at Signitic Coral and you can decide which email signature is displayed to which employee or department. The email signatures are integrated into the signatures of the employees via the corresponding solution. For the Outlook desktop clients, for example, there is EasySync.
Q: What is synchronised?
A: Employees you manage via your Microsoft 365 account are added to Signitic Coral. Which data is transferred from Microsoft 365 to Signitic Coral, you can define in the data mapping or the import rules.
Q: When will it sync?
A: When you do a manual sync, or automatically every 24 hours at 03:00 at night (if you have auto-sync enabled).
Q: Some employees managed in Microsoft 365 were already manually created in Signitic Coral before the Microsoft 365 user sync went live. What happens when I start the Microsoft 365 user sync?

Depending on the setting, the manually created employee data may be automatically overwritten by the employee data from O365.
