Manual enrollment

  • Enrollment can be done without having to reset the devices to factory defaults.

Disadvantages

  • Enrollment can be removed at any time in the settings on the devices (MDM profile).
  • Only partially suitable for BYOD devices, as administrators can see which apps are installed.
  • Not all actions and policy configurations are possible.
  • Devices are often not supervised (Supervised Mode).

To perform a manual enrollment, it must first be created in Relution. To do this, switch to DevicesEnrollments in the menu and then click Add.

Enrollments depend on the operating system. Therefore, select either iOS, macOS or tvOS as Platform and the Device enrollment as Type. The ownership can be selected accordingly.

To associate a User with the device to be enrolled, select it. Note that users should have the Device User role for this.

Each enrollment can be used only once. Unless the switch for Multiple enrollment is activated. If this is the case, new devices can be enrolled via the enrollment link until either the validity date has been exceeded or no more device licenses are available in Relution.

Under Policies and Rules, the same can be linked to the enrollment. If the device is enrolled, these are applied directly.

Once the enrollment is saved and thus created, the created QR code can be scanned on the iOS device, or the URL can be entered manually in the browser. The MDM profile is downloaded via the Enrollment button and must be installed on the device in the next step in the Settings under VPN and Device Management.
