Manage resellers

Refer to the Resellers screen to register Samsung-approved resellers so Samsung can verify their device ownership and assist in preventing erroneous enrollments. You can also edit reseller device approval preferences or delete a reseller from the list available in the Knox Guard console.

To manage resellers:

1. Select Resellers from the left-hand navigation menu.

   

2. Refer to the following to determine whether if reseller accounts require creation, edit or removal:

   • RESELLER — Lists each available Knox Guard reseller as a link that can be selected to edit that reseller’s device approval preference. For more information, go to: Edit reseller approval preferences.

   • RESELLER ID — Lists each listed reseller’s ID that was provided by the reseller when their Knox account was originally created.

   • COUNTRY — Lists each existing reseller’s country of origin and deployment support.

   • DEVICE ACCEPTANCE — Displays whether each listed reseller must approve each Knox Guard upload individually or if device information uploaded by the listed reseller is automatically approved. To change upload permissions for a listed reseller, go to: Edit reseller approval preferences.

If none of the existing resellers meets your deployment objective, select Register reseller from the ACTIONS drop-down menu. For more information, go to: Register a new reseller.

Edit reseller approval preferences

Existing resellers can be selected from the list of those available and their Knox Guard device acceptance privileges updated as needed for the deployments they support.

To update a reseller’s device approval privileges:

1. Refer to the Resellers screen and select the link of a listed reseller.

   

2. Set the selected reseller’s acceptance criteria:

   • Automatically approve all uploads from this reseller — Device information from this reseller is automatically approved for each device upload and added to device inventory. If this option is not selected, devices must be manually accepted each time they are uploaded to Knox Guard.

3. Select SAVE to update the reseller’s approval privileges. The Reseller screen’s Device upload approval column reflects the updated approval status.

3. Once the Reseller ID is obtained, enter it within the Enter Reseller ID field and select the LOOK UP button.

4. Once the reseller has been found, select the newly enabled SUBMIT button.

   

5. Set the new reseller’s device acceptance criteria:

   • Automatically approve all uploads from this reseller — Device information from this reseller is automatically approved for each device upload and added to device inventory. If this option is not selected, devices must be manually accepted each time they are uploaded to Knox Guard.

6. Select SAVE to save the newly added reseller resource and add them to the list of available resellers.
