Assigning a user to an iPad from Device Details

There are several methods available for assigning users to iPads. One method, described here, is to use the Set User links on the Device Details tab for the device. Use “Teacher user” to set a teacher and “School (VPP) users” to set a student user. The “Teacher user” setting will allow the device to receive a teacher education profile for Apple Classroom. The “School (VPP) user” will allow the device to receive content such as apps and books when using user-assignments rather than device-assignments.

Note that for iPads using Shared iPad, the user is automatically assigned during the login process and does not need to be set here.

Other ways to assign iPads to users are to do it from the ASM Content User record or by using the Securly Locker app the first time it is run after enrollment as described in the Configuring Automated Device Enrollment Settings for a device group section.
