I don't think there is a way of doing this. You really need a seperate system that imports users from AD and then use that. You could try spiceworks<br />

Unfortunately this solution deals with potentially damaging the AD schema. It is my understanding this ability may be added to another service pack in the unknown future

I have been asked to update our users with all their info including home phone numbers etc. &nbsp;However my company wants to restrict certain AD fields from being accessable by averyone. &nbsp;For example, Cetain managers when querying the global directory will be able to view home cell numbers and emergency numbers. &nbsp;The regular employees when doing a globals address lookup will not be able to see these home numbers. <br />

Is there a way in AD or in group policies to do this

Hiding specific user contact fields from specific users

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.
