How can I transfer a device from a user to another?
A. Transfer devices to the same account
Regardless of the method you chose to enroll your devices in TinyMDM, they are all linked to a user. Most of the time, if you want to change the configuration of a device, you simply need to change the group or the policy linked to the device. But you may need to transfer a device from one user to another if:
- Several devices have mistakenly been assigned to the same user, scanning the same QR code
To transfer a device to the same account, go to the Devices tab, click on the menu 
of the device you wish to transfer, then on Change user.
In the popup window that appears, you can choose the user to transfer the device to.
This popup window also allows you to delete unwanted apps. These are applications that are present in the device’s original policy but are not present in the new policy.
During transfer, the green card represents the active user who was initially associated with the device, while the red card represents the device currently being transferred with the user who has just been selected.
B. Transfer devices to another account
If you are a manager on several accounts and you have the right to change users, then you can transfer to the current account or to another account. To do this, go to the Devices tab, click on the menu of the device you wish to transfer, then on Change user.
In the popup window that appears, you can choose the TinyMDM account and user to transfer the device to. You can also deleted unwanted apps. These are applications that are present in the device’s original policy but are not present in the new policy.
Please note several important points:
- If the target user belongs to a different policy, the device will apply the new configuration. The change will be immediate on the TinyMDM console, but may take several minutes to run on the device in question.
- The target account must have a valid TinyMDM subscription and enough free licenses to host the device.
- The target user must have fewer than 10 devices assigned to him or her. If the user already has 10 devices, he won’t be visible in the list.
- The manager who performs the transfer must have the corresponding permission in both the source and target accounts.
- The manager who performs the transfer must have access to the target user’s group, in accordance with his/her membership of the Structure. Otherwise, the user will not be visible in the list.
