Replicating to Global Catalog in AD

Comment:
I'm trying to add attributes to the global catalog in Active Directory. I've gone through Schema Manager and checked "Replicate to Global Catalog" then gone back into Users and Computers > Advanced View but the fields still don't show up. I read that you have to resyncronize the forest, but this is in a test environment with only that one DC.
The fields I'm trying to replicate are employeeType and photo.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
