MacOS Device setup with Endpoint Manager
I have recently taken over management of my company's Intune/Endpoint Manager environment for management of iOS and MacOS devices. The current setup has multiple configuration profiles that are assig...
We are currently enrolling without user affinity because the MacOS devices are not domain machines, so we cannot change the assigned user afterwards. The tech sets up a local account for the user at time of setup, and the user logs into the Company Portal with their domain credentials when they receive the machine. Since the machines are already enrolled prior to their receipt, would it be feasible to just turn off the enrollment option in the customization area for the Company Portal so that it's not trying to re-enroll when the end user signs into the CP for the first time?
Hi klenTAHN,
It’s not possible, Company portal checks to see if the logged on user has UDA (User Device Affinity) with the device. If they don’t, it’ll try to enroll again which what you’re seeing.
Best way is to use User Affinity and sign with user creds, it’s very similar to Windows AutoPilot experience.
Hope this helps!

- so what you're saying is that there is no way to configure a MacOS device prior to a user having it in their possession? our techs dont have access to user credentials to login with until they are with the user performing the device handoff.
