Thanks for the follow up, the organization attribute would be fine for us
to use. I had tried this out but I cannot get it to save, I get an error
when saving

Caused by: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber: 82; columnNumber: 46;
The entity name must immediately follow the '&' in the entity reference.


Code:

<notificationConfiguration>
       <handler>        <!-- branch for department 'A' -->
<expressionFilter>
<script>
                <code>event.isUserRelated() &&
requestee.getOrganization().size() == 1 &&
requestee.getOrganization().get(0).getOrig() == 'GenEd'</code>
</script>
</expressionFilter>
<accountPasswordNotifier>
