As you can see, inbound synchronization rules are associated with the Connector Space MA we like to import information from. Outbound synchronization is very different!
This is one reason I tend not to have Inbound and Outbound Data Flow Direction in my synchronization rules.
Outbound synchronization rules are associated with each object (user, for example). In FIM 2010 R2, there are two ways of doing this.
You can either use Outbound Synchronization Policy or Outbound System Scoping Filter.
Note
You can only make this choice during the creation of the outbound synchronization rule. You cannot change it once the synchronization rule is created.
In some scenarios, you will find that it is useful to have multiple outbound synchronization rules for one external system. In those cases, you might mix the two different ways of associating the rule to the object. You will find one example of this later in this chapter, in the Managing Exchange section.
