Unique username accross all managed domains

0 votes

Has anyone ever had the business requirement that the usernames of new users be unique across all of the managed domains in the environment?

It is easy enough to run a powershell script to check for existing usernames prior to the creation of a user account with a business rule but will the run as service account understand to look further into the other domains as well?
