You can view the detailed user account information, modify user account details, send enrollment guides or templates registered in Knox Manage to users via email and/or SMS, and delete user accounts.
To modify the user account details, complete the following steps:
-
Navigate to User.

On the User page, select the check box next to the user you want to modify, and then click Modify.

On the Modify User page, modify the following user information if necessary:
-

License — Select the license type to be used for this user— Knox Suite or Knox Manage. Select Knox Suite if you have a Knox Suite license and you want to use the same license to enroll this user’s device to other Knox services included in Knox Suite.
With a Knox Suite license, only one license seat is consumed by each device (IMEI) regardless of how many Knox services (in Knox Suite) that device is enrolled in.
-
Staging User — If you want to set up a shared device, you must first create a staging user. To create a staging user, select Yes and configure the user’s details. For detailed information about the entire process of creating a staging user and setting up shared and non-shared devices, see Shared Android device quickstart and Non-shared Android device enrollment quickstart.

Managed Apple ID — Specify the Managed Apple IDs either by manually entering the IDs for each user or by linking your user directory to the Knox Manage console.
Managed Apple IDs are required to enroll Apple devices using the Shared iPad or User Enrollment deployment modes. You can set up Managed Apple IDs for your organization using one of the following methods:
- Create Managed Apple IDs for each user in the Apple Business Manager portal.
- Link your user directory to Apple Business Manager to replace your company accounts with a Managed Apple ID.
