Propogate Policies down AD tree

Hello

We have Enterprise Console syncronized with Active Direcotory and just like Group Policy in AD we would like to apply certain policies high up in the tree and propogate these down into the different OUs.

There doesn't seem to be an option when editing the group policy details in Enterprise Console to apply the policy on all sub groups. Is there a way to do this?

    I assumed you're using Synchronize with AD. I get it that you just used Import from AD. Now depending on your structure and the number of different policies you intend to use it might be easier to set up a new structure and (re-)import from AD.

    OldTree 
    - OU1 (Policy A)
    -- OU1.1 
    --- OU1.1.1
    -- OU1.2
    - OU2 (Policy B)
    -- OU2.1
    -- OU2.2
    
    NewTree
    - OU1.A
    - OU2.B

     Assuming you imported your structure at OldTree. Now you want to use Policy A for all OUs under OU1 and Policy B for OU2. So instead of setting the policy for each sub-OU create NewTree with two subgroups, assign the desired policies and then import the OU1 subtree to OU1.A and the OU2 to OU2.B.
