Enrolling iPhones into Intune in Supervised Mode
Hi ptony
Are you planning to use Azure SSO with managed Apple IDs so the users using Azure creds to access their managed apple id? if yes, you have a lot of work to do to own the apple ids again to enable SSO. Apple calls those IDs personal even they use their company emails. Very confusing but happy to go deep in details if planning for SSO.
Yes, in order to bring the devices Supervised, you need to connect them to Apple Configurator, wipe them and then restore a copy of their data by enabling their old iCloud account. You can't restore system backup. File backup is ok (images, apps, iMessages, audio notes etc).
New Apple Configurator app was recently released to iPhone app store which lets you enroll devices, so check it before using the article below-

So unsure at this time if we would leverage the SSO. From your response would it just be easier to enroll new devices using the apple business manager at the time of purchase. So basically put everyone into supervised mode when we upgrade there phones?

let me tell you how we have done it.
We started with enrolling new phones into ABM like you mentioned. Then we scheduled existing phones when the time allows, maybe one phone a month. We are 100% supervised now, it took us about two years.
