MIM Inbound Sync Rule Attributes not defined in Source Schema

Hello,

We are trying to add "Admin - " to the AAD displayname for accounts with "admin" in the upn. We have tried several different expressions like this - IIF(InStr([userprincipalname],"admin"),"Admin - " & [displayname],[displayName]). This error message below happens when trying to save.

Trying another expression like this seems to work: IIF(IsNullOrEmpty([displayName]),"Prefix_" & [cn],"Prefix_" & [displayName]). We are not sure why the attributes are not defined for the first expression but are for the second expression.

I believe attribute names in the MIM/AAD Connect sync engine are case sensitive. That seems very likely to be the problem. It's been a few years since I've used either of those products, but I believe the error message is including displayName (correctly capitalized) only because it's the destination attribute, so that you can identify which expression is the problem. I believe the problematic ones are all in the source expression, as they all are incorrectly capitalized.
