Enrolling an Android Work Managed Device

About this task

This is the procedure for enrolling work managed devices. If you want to enroll an Android device with a work profile, follow the general Android Plus enrollment steps, ensuring that you select the Android Enterprise device agent.

Note: For work managed devices, the Android Enterprise device agent must be downloaded during the initial device setup. If the device agent is downloaded after the device setup is complete, the device can only be activated as a work profile or you must factory reset the device and begin again.

To enroll an Android device into SOTI MobiControl as a work managed device:

    • Enter the SOTI EMM token identifier (afw#mobicontrol) when prompted to add a Google account
  2. Follow the general Android Plus enrollment instructions.
