Active Directory users can have their office name configured in the attribute PhysicalDeliveryOfficeName. In general it’s a great idea to populate this attribute with something meaningful so it can be used in LDAP queries.

If you’re running our free tool DynamicGroups you can even use this attribute to create dynamic groups in your Active Directory.
