For New Users do as described above

If your User exists  already do this


Redirecting CN=Users to an administrator-specified organizational unit

    Log on with domain administrator credentials in the z domain where the CN=Users container is being redirected.
    Transition the domain to the Windows Server 2003 domain functional level or newer in either the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in (Dsa.msc) or the Domains and Trusts (Domains.msc) snap-in. For more information about increasing the domain functional level, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
    322692 How to raise domain and forest functional levels in Windows Server 2003
    Create the organizational unit container where you want users who are created with earlier-version APIs to be located, if the organization unit container that you want does not already exist.
    Run the Redirusr.exe file at the command prompt by using the following syntax, where container-dn is the distinguished name of the organizational unit that will become the default location for newly created user objects created by down-level APIs:
    c:\windows\system32\redirusr <DN path to alternate OU>
    Redirusr is installed in the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder on Windows Server 2003-based or newer computers. For example, to change the default location for users who are created with down-level APIs such as Net User to the OU=MYUsers OU container in the CONTOSO.COM domain, use the following syntax:
    c:\windows\system32>redirusr ou=myusers,DC=contoso,dc=com
Will this user need access to shares on a server somewhere?

ok thanks but typically the new user would show up in active directory after i set up a new user in EMC. If i set up a user in AD then how will i link the two. Please excuse me if i'm not asking the correct questions i'm not very familiar.
I am not familiar with EMC (Sorry), but it sounds as if there is a directory link between your EMC instance and the domain. If possible, create the user in EMC, like done before, and wait for it to show up in A.D.

thanks everyone, i was able to complete the task. Now i want to share my calendar with her and shes not in the global address.
If is a new user wait till next day to show in GAL or use OWA to see the user right away.
@clonyxlro i did wait until the next day and she is still not in the GAL. When i go to share the calender with user i get Permissions: Reviewer(read only) . I did set her as up as a publishing editor.
