Trying to learn Intune - stuck at MDM "Your device is already being manged by an organization"
- Nov 23, 2020
The issue has been resolved. The default configuration was for MAM user scope to be set to All when it needs to be set to None.
To get to the correct screen, go to Microsoft Endpoint Manager, click Devices, Enroll Devices, click Automatic Enrollment. Changing MAM from All to None, unmanaging the devices currently in AAD, then adding them again via the Company Portal store app.

Hi David,
So I've been running some workshops with some clients and I've run into the same problem. It really sucked that it happend during a live demo but all assured I did some troubleshooting.
Apparently the Company Portal App is bugged...
Here are my settings: MAM and MDM are set to all or can be set to some, it doesn't matter. They should work in tandem ...
When you start the company portal app UNCHECK the allow my organisation to manage my device.
Everything works smoothly afterwards. I don't even get why that option is there in the first place. Even if it's unchecked it still registers the device with Azure AD...
I simply proceed then to the allow the organisation to manage my device. It worked.
Hope it helps,
Patrick
Hi, I guess everyone is wondering the same question.
But working in tandem? Microsoft explains MAM and MDM very well
If you don't want to register the device, you will need to click on no, sign in to this app only
Or
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WorkplaceJoin, "BlockAADWorkplaceJoin"=dword:00000001

- Tic_PatrickApr 15, 2021Brass ContributorRight, I completely missed that thing(as in I didn't know about the precedence of MAM over MDM for BYOD, thanks for that) but I was actually referring that having both those option applied shouldn't be the cause of the error "your device is already registered with another organisation". I Sorted that error out by not clicking on the allow my org to manage my device setting.
Sheesh, I'm confused.. oh well, get your troubleshooting boots on!- Apr 15, 2021Hi,
It's something that's quickly overlooked indeed. Old registry settings and old account connections could be the cause of the warning/error. When giving a demo, always make sure the device has a nice clean install :). I also made the mistake myself when I wanted to show something to a colleague- Tic_PatrickApr 15, 2021Brass ContributorThey are always clean installs(fresh VM). so no registry issues. just that silly manage my device option needs to be unchecked). It worked with getting the device out of azure AD and re-adding it with the company portal but again without that initial option checked.
Best of luck!
