Alert

Parent entities can assign devices to enrollees within their sub-entity accounts, even if the hardware has not yet been transferred to the sub-entity's inventory. In doing so, the parent user will see a prompt that reads "This device is not in the same entity as the enrollee, would you like to move it?" 

The parent user will have the option to select "yes", which will transfer the device into the sub-entity's inventory, or select "no" keeping the device within the parent entity's inventory.

Please note that unless a device is officially transferred to a sub-entity, users within that sub-entity will not have access to key device data under the Hardware tab.

This includes Device Communication logs, charging status, battery health, and other critical information. As long as the device remains in the parent entity’s account, only the parent entity will be able to view this data.

To ensure that sub-entity users can access and monitor essential device information, the device must be transferred into the sub-entity’s inventory.


If assigning hardware to an enrollee that is not yet activated in the ShadowtrackONE platform, the enrollee will become active upon hardware assignment.
Hardware can also be unassigned from the Hardware tab in the Enrollee profile. Simply go to the enrollee's profile > Hardware tab. Select "Actions" > "Unassign". You will select either "Return to Inventory" or "Out of Service". If "Out of Service" is selected, a reason will need to be selected from the dropdown, and the device can no longer be reassigned.
Once the hardware has been assigned, it is recommended to reboot the device to ensure communication with the platform.
