AD sync question
We have a customer that has activated a tenant with office 365 business licenses. The tenant is not yet connected to AD . On the tenant several users are already been created and assigned an office...
VasilMichevReading the article I see that it works using the smtp address as soft match, it it requires that the users have an active mailbox on exchange online.
Unfortunately the customer has only on-prem exchange

It works on "mail" attribute as well, and if that is not an option, you can use UPN matching: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/azure/active-directory/use-upn-matching-identity-sync
Or use the hard-match method: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/archive/blogs/praveenkumar/how-to-do-hard-match-in-dirsync
