In the Site Management|Site Settings|Discovery Methods|Active Directory System Discovery, goto Properties and the Active Directory Attribute tab. Add an Attribute called description. At the next discovery, this will be collected. You can not add the column to ConfigMgr console, but it will display in the properties, and you can create queries and reports on this discovered attribute.--Joe.

As Joe writes, modify the Active Directory System Discovery to include the Description field, there are no specific format to configure. Regards, Jörgen-- My System Center blog ccmexec.com -- Twitter @ccmexec
