Identified an eror that is thrown to the user when teh enterprise Administrator is not a direct member of Enterprise Administrators groups in the on-premises AD.

When trying the operation the customer gets the error "The user provided is not a member of the Enterprise Administrators group".

Checking the Trace logs:

ActiveDirectoryProvider.IsUserGroupMember: membership not found - user is NOT a member of the group
[ERROR] DeviceHybridScpPage: User is not a member of the EnterpriseAdmins group: *******************

> [!WARNING]
> The Enterprise Admin Account must be a direct member of the Enterprise Administrators in the on-premises Active Directory. Once the credential is provided, a process will begin to verify if the SID of the given user is a direct member of the Enterprise Administrators group. Indirect membership will trigger the error message: "The user provided is not a member of the Enterprise Administrators group."
