What the device user sees
After downloading and installing Ivanti Mobile@Work , the device user must register with Ivanti EPMM by entering their user name, password, and server details.

Auto-populating the Ivanti EPMM server name during registration
Auto-populating the Ivanti EPMM server name streamlines the registration process and eliminates the need for the device user to type it. You can auto-populate the Ivanti EPMM server address based on the device phone number or the email address.
This feature is not supported for devices with Android v6.0 and above.
Auto-populating the Ivanti EPMM server name based on email address
To auto-populate the server name based on the device user’s email address, you only need to register your Ivanti EPMM with Ivanti, Inc. Additional configuration on Ivanti EPMM is not required.
Device users must enter their full email address when prompted to enter their user name in the registration screen. Ivanti, Inc matches the email domain to the appropriate Ivanti EPMM and populates the registration screen with the correct server name.

Requiring device identifiers for enrollment
You have the option to make the collection of a device’s hardware identifiers such as the IMEI number and the phone number optional before the device is enrolled. If you disable Require device identifiers for enrollment, the enrollment will still proceed, but the client will not collect the device identifier data. The device would be a "PDA" device such as a tablet.
Procedure
- In Admin Portal, go to Settings > System Settings > Users & Devices > Registration.
- Select Require device identifiers for enrollment. This is supported on devices using Android 6.0 or supported newer versions.
- Select Save.
