Migrating PC from an Azure AD tenant to another Azure AD tenant

Hi all,   We're planning to merge another Office 365 tenant into ours, and want to know what to do with the AAD joined devices.   I'm thinking that I'll need to: 1. Create a local admin account....
Azure Active Directory (AAD)

    Your steps outlined above are the correct path. The other option to use if you want to keep the same user profile is using a handy utility called user profile wizard. Link below. It needs to be run as a local admin just FYI. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks for the info!  Were looking to do the same migration for one of our clients.  When you joined to the new AAD, and logged in with the email account from the migrated domain name, was the profile preserved for that user or did it create a new profile?  Thanks!

Ferrell FullerI think that it does create a new profile. But we did it a while ago now, so I'm not 100% sure. If it does, you can use a profile migration tool to migrate from the old profile to the new profile.
